Subject recounts the experience of sharing your own life on screen, in the words of the subjects of such notable documentaries as The Staircase, Hoop Dreams, The Wolfpack, Capturing the Friedmans and The Square. The film analyses what it meant in their lives to be under the lens of a microscope day after day, and reflects on the ethical components and responsibility inherent to the act of filming a documentary. Millions of people watch documentaries these days, in an unprecedented golden age for the genre, and this work reflects on the profound impact this has for their subjects.
