What Jennifer Did
Netflix's true crime documentaries are as successful as they are predictable: a case is presented, something doesn't add up, a new revelation emerges, controversy or shock ensues. The same goes for What Jennifer Did, a documentary that delves into the controversial case of Jennifer Pan in Canada during 2010. If you remember it from the news, you already know what the story is about. And if not, you'll soon find out: the documentary follows the same true crime formula, so expect twists and surprises in the narrative.
The Antisocial Network: Memes to Mayhem
A documentary that explores how the internet has progressed from the promise of democratic knowledge and innocent entertainment to a breeding ground for misinformation and even violence that spills over into the real world.

It doesn't present reflections that aren't obvious to those who have read books or watched other films about the impact of social media, but it's a good starting point to learn about how misinformation works on the internet.
