Documentaries are based on the attempt, in one fashion or another, to "document" reality.

Documentaries come in several forms:

• Documentary film
• Documentary television
• Radio documentary
• Documentary theatre
• Web documentary, utilizing interactive and non-linear web-based story telling
• Photojournalism can also be considered a form of documentary.

Documentaries have varying relationships with what historians may accept as the truth about events and may be largely propaganda.^[where?]
