List Uplifting Positive Documentaries


Recommended Posts

We love documentaries but the last few years it seems they've started to make most of them so hyped up with negative music, negative vibes and downright gross or dark themes.  We've watched all of BBC's David Attenborough and Planet Earth stuff.  

So, type away! What documentaries have you seen that are overall positive, in tone and music etc.

There was one I watched on Netflix about women who rowed a boat from California to Australia. I think it was Losing Sight of Shore.

How We Got to Now was fun.

The Mystery of Matter was good. It is sort of a documentary with some docudrama parts about the discovery of the periodic table and elements.

Hmmm... I've watched a lot of NOVA episodes and documentaries that are *interesting*, but not sure I'd say they are *positive* or *feel-good*... What about:
- Babies (2010)
- America's Heart & Soul (2004)
- Queen of Katwe -- NOT a documentary, but a feature film based on real person/events

I've not watched these, but they look very inspiring:
- Daughters of Destiny (2017)
- Tales By Light (2015) -- mini-series
