Tsukiji (dir. Allan Sekula, 2001)

I usually don't watch many documentary films, but this one stood out to me. There's no narration or interviews, but simply a camera capturing a day at a fish market within Tokyo. The only context provided is the beating of a certain man at the location, allowing the viewer to take in that context however they want to as the film progresses. For me personally the imagery of fish being butchered nonchalantly reflected how the police may have beat the subject, without care for another human's life and doing so because it's their job. There is no music, just simply the ambient noise of the fish market. It pushes you to fully observe the scene yourself and focus on how each part makes you feel, the only deliberate choice made by the filmmaker being the choice of shots and camera.
