• dc.description.abstract The introduction of Virtual Reality technologies into documentary filmmaking in the previous decade has brought about opportunities for emotionally compelling narratives to be constructed surrounding various social issues in hopes to raise more awareness and provoke real change. However, it is important to remember that just like any other media format, immersive 360- degree documentaries are nonetheless produced and consumed within the hegemonic Euro- American human rights spectacle which lays at the core of all contemporary humanitarian communication practices. Thus, through a qualitative analysis of three immersive 360-degree documentaries, this research study aims to provide critical insight into the current modes of immersive documentary making about refugees and/or displacement.ca
