I'm really looking forward to seeing this. Paradise Lost is one of those films I recommend to everyone, regardless of how much the subject matter disgusts them. It's really not about the killings, that would a just a run of the mill (though tragic for the family) crime documentary. Interesting, but nothing you wouldn't encounter in one of the many hour long true crime documentaries that seem to grow like bacteria in the petri dishes of the documentary channels. The tragedy comes afterwards.
The only film I can remember seeing that actually had me open-mouthed like a cliche. Could not believe what I had heard in that courtroom.
*EDIT* Sopie Scholl isn't a documentary. Great film and I definately recommend it to those who've not seen it. But it's not a documentary.

As for Sophie Scholl: The Final Days is the drama you are talking about.
I was mentioning the German documentary Sophie Scholl.
Same goes for Battle Of Algiers, which was made as a documentary and a movie , as well.
