Made immediately before he made Amy, by Kapadia
Similar to Amy:
All new visual footage
Kapadia has no onscreen presence, verbally and visually, makes it seem like there's no mediation, watching it unfold naturally
Is Kapadia's skill taking controversial figurers and making them appear better - Senna as noble and Amy as a victim
Footage used is far less personal than Amy, get less of a bond with him - know Ayrton Senna the racing driver not him as a person, opposite for Amy
Would Kapadia argue that the documentaries were made like that because that's where the story was - Senna with his controversial career and Amy with her controversial life
Can relate to Amy more than this because we were alive at the time
Could be argued that he's a documentary editor/compiler instead of a creator
John Grierson - documentary is the creative treatment of actuality
Finishes like Amy, return to innocence - starting quote and end quote are the same
