dc.description.abstractThere are non-human ways to document the world we live in, but the experience of reading these documents is always exposing it to a human interpretation. Ideological documentaries are the films inside the documentary genre that organize and edit recordings of the world to persuade the audience towards an ideology, demonstrating its correctness throughout a particular view of a historical event and, at the same time, promoting its version of reality as the most accurate. This research aims to reflect on the persuasive narrative of the ideological documentary, and provide a typology to identify and analyse them. After building the methodology, I’ll perform a narrative analysis of two documentaries that I consider ideological: The revolution will not be televised and X-ray of a lie. Both represent the same historical event: the 2002 attempted coup d’état against the former Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez, but each one advocates to an opposite ideology.en_US
