The purpose of the documentary "The March of Freedom" is to explore the concept of freedom across various cultures and countries, and ask the question, What does it mean to be free? We hear a life story from a man that has been in solitary confinement most of his life and we learn that to him, freedom is a state of mind. He talks about how even though his body isn't free, his mind can go wherever it wants. This man has been kept in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day, 365 days a year, for almost 44 years, but was still able to feel free in his mind. Then there is an opposing view saying you can become free but your mind can still be trapped. They had a man who had been imprisoned in a North Korea concentration camp since birth speak upon his thoughts. He had escaped from the camp and now lives a life with freedom but he says that his mind will always be trapped and he will forever have nightmares. From the story, we learn that freedom is an intrinsic right of every human being, but just because it is an intrinsic right doesn't mean that there aren't people who are trying to take it away from you. We learn freedom is something you have to work for. This girl lost her entire family to government forces that unleashed abuse and brutality on her tribe, killing thousands. She then dedicated her life to fighting for her tribe and won the 1992 Nobel Peace Prize for her peaceful yet effective methods. All of the different people speaking about the stories of their life and encounters with freedom really convinced the audience that freedom isn't just one thing that you can put a definition on. It's a concept with so many different meanings. The story used a lot of pathos because while these people were giving their stories they would usually have an awful back story but still tell how they had developed freedom in their own way. Another great component of this documentary was the sound effects and animations added to the people's stories. They make your brain a lot more invested and are very appealing to the viewers eyes. This is why it was a great idea to make this a documentary and not a written story. One thing I think the documentary left out was addressing a counter argument. A good counter argument they could have addressed would have been interviewing someone who had never felt free and had no freedom. Someone like that could have added some interesting thoughts onto the documentary. Overall the documentary does a good job with proving that freedom is a concept with a variety of viewpoints. You get to hear lots of different personal experiences from people all around the world and none of them are the same.
