The paper is/should be:

• Around 1,000-1,500 words (about two pages in font size 12, excluding references).

I am interested in knowing what YOU think. Include appropriate referencing of words and ideas that are not your own to distinguish from the sources you build on. Reference guidelines are available here: ) To reference the documentary, use the name of the director in lieu of author name, year of release for year of publication and time stamp for page number, eg.
