Documentary films can be powerfully persuasive, and our guest today helps us understand why, and then gives us a roadmap for how to watch films in the genre. Jason Osder -- filmmaker and professor of documentary at The George Washington University's School of Media and Public Affairs -- will be our guide today, as we learn some behind-the-scenes conventions filmmakers use, and how to navigate documentaries, especially when we’re trying to make health-promoting changes. See you in class!
