What makes a film documentary?

It's engaging enough to keep the viewer interested.

Some people these days can't handle paying attention for more than 5 - 10 minutes. So I'd say that if a documentary can keep someone viewing longer than that, it makes it a good one!

There's plenty of websites that will do this for you though. Particularly Documentary Addict which is definately the best one out there.

What else can I help you with?

What is the difference between documentary and short film?

¢Documentary is a depiction or direct filming ("cinema vérité") of a real life situation rather than a fictional story. ¢A documentary generally describes a film about real people and real situations without a script. ¢A documentary is nonfiction. ¢A short film is strictly on time. You can have a short documentary (half hour or so) and a short film can be on anything (fact or fiction). ¢Short film just describes any movie under 40 minutes.
