This project is intended for those students interested in demonstrating further mastery of the course content. Documentaries are non-fiction films. In this documentary video (5-7 minutes) you will explore the ideas in one or more of the chapters of Poor Economics by Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo. Your documentary should highlight a problem or issue discussed in the book by telling the story of one or more people. The documentary should include interviews that reflect multiple sides of the story, voiceover narration, music, and researched evidence about the issue or idea you are documenting. You MUST interview at least one person yourself as a part of your documentary. Watch some of the work from past students below.
This rubric will be used to evaluate your documentary.
