For example: I want to see a story about an old man from the red army going to the dark side of the moon to kick nazi ass (Because that’s where they are hiding obvi). Just random shit like that, where socialist people, projects, themes, ideas, and histories are represented with pride and care. No hollywood anti-communist bullshit like Enemy at the Gates (excellent critique of that movie here by a fellow communist) and no stupid profit motive pushing artists past their ability or censoring their works unnecessarily to push deadlines.

      I’ve been watching a lot of documentaries lately and one thing that’s always missing from the mainstream ones is any sort of exploration into why the people or organizations involved do exploitative things. I understand of course why even a simple superficial questioning of the conditions that motivate bad behaviour is taboo. I’d love to see more documentaries with a dialectical materialist angle.
