Here's a really good one:
Children Underground is a 2001 documentary film directed by Edet Belzberg.
The film follows a group of abandoned street children, aged eight to sixteen, who live in the Romanian subway system. The street kids are encountered daily by commuting adults, who pass them by in the station as they starve, swindle, and steal, all while searching desperately for a fresh can of paint to get high with.
One of the children director Belzberg follows is Cristina Ionescu. At first this child may seem to be a young man, but you later find out that girls have to become hard and boyish in order to survive. This is also very apparent with another child named, Violeta 'Macarena' Rosu, who is also a girl. The nickname 'Macarena' derives from the song "Macarena", her favorite. Three other children, Mihai Tudose, and brother and sister Ana and Marian, are also profiled.
The film explores the lives of these children, who are shown fighting, abusing themselves, and becoming addicted to inhaling a spray paint called Aurolac. The filmmakers follow Mihai to his family's home in the town of Constanta. A similar scene films Ana and Marian as they visit their home, which is also outside Bucharest.

also the Mortenson interview on Moyers was a very unexpected insight on how not necessarily 100% superfucked Afghanistan is, given the right people doing the right things

i've tried for some time to find good documentaries and information on the history of writing/symbols (sumer, cuneiform, hieroglyphics, etc) and its implications on human consiousness.
here's a part from a documentay called Written Word - Birth of Writing
sadly, the effect of Zecharia Sitchin writing his book "The 12th Planet" (exciting as it may be) is that you only find SHIT on the topic of sumer, babylonia, etc.
two other short documentaries (or part of) worth your time (if you have the interest), are:
A Brief History of the King James Bible
Cold Mountain (Ch'an-taoist poet) You get to see Red Pine and Burton Watson!
and we'll round it off with the first episode of a swedish documentary with Jonas Gardell, on the origin of the God concept. it's subbed.
Ã…h, Herregud!

Children Underground.
Yes, I remember watching that one. It fucking haunted me for weeks. Imagine a non-fictional Lord of the Flies and add two tons of misery on top and you're not even close to the shit going on in that doc.
Recommended if you want a good ol' downer.

David Attenborough is my hero. Anything by/with him is tops. I concur that King of Kong was good. The antagonist is one of the most humongous douchebags the world has ever known which made it simultaneously hard to watch and impossible to look away. I like this thread and plan on checking out some of the docus I haven't yet seen. Cheers!
