This documentary primarily documents the technical aspects of producing the psychological thriller *The Machinist*. Its main goal is to showcase the filmmaking process, which limits its ability to explore diverse social issues or multi-layered identities. By focusing on the mechanics of filmmaking, the documentary stays within a traditional framework, avoiding the subversion of cultural norms or the representation of diverse social groups. As a result, the film offers limited insights into systemic diversity or the deconstruction of established social hierarchies.
