Resumo
This article focuses on some fundamental axis of the science documentary from a multiple perspective. Firstly, it attempts to draw the limits of this subgenre by means of some of its most common characteristics, such as the direct connection to findings of scientific research and the presence or support of scientists. Secondly, a brief historical review is undertaken, focusing on some of the pioneers who made a decisive contribution to conform it. Finally, it presents some key trends that help to define the present situation, including the search for entertainment and trends resulting from the use of digital technology.
