Name: Yosemite: The Fate of Heaven
Genre: Documentary
Duration: 58 min
Rating: 8.1
Cast: Robert Redford

"Yosemite: The Fate of Heaven" is a documentary from "The American Experience" which is narrated by Robert Redford. In style, it is very different from the usual episodes of this excellent series. Instead of focusing on the history of its discovery or the history of this national park, it mostly consists of various folks from the public talking about the park as well as showing SOME video footage of the area. However, it's NOT a great look at the park when it comes to its beauty, as much better travelogue type films have been made, such as "America's National Parks" (both the 2016 series and the Garth Brooks series) or "Yosemite: America's Treasure". Overall, it's mildly interesting but not a whole lot more.

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
