Recommend me a film

I'm lying on the sofa with a chest infection and no energy whatsoever, I can't even be bothered to hold up a book. But my brain is still functioning as normal and I really fancy a long, interesting film where I might learn something. I was thinking about JFK, real-life conspiracy theory type thing. Yesterday I watched First Man and the one about Alan Turing, that was really good. The day before that I watched Erin Brockovich. I've been stuck on the sofa for days and days and days.
Can anyone recommend me something along those lines? I've been on the sofa for so long I am bored solid. Or some interesting documentaries? Real life crime or conspiracy sort of things? Like Louis Theroux but I think I've watched most of his stuff.
Please help me before I lose my mind.

What about Wormwood - its an Errol Morris documentary (ish) thing on Netflix about the MK Ultra (CIA mind control) project.. Well made and fascinating - but actually a bit creepy..

This is available on Channel4 at the moment if you haven't seen it I'd highly recommend it. It's a doc about three children, triplets, separated at birth finding each other as adults but there's so much more to it than that. Really fascinating and moving.

I've watched Hidden Figures, it was great. 3 Identical Strangers sounds good, I think I'll give that a try. Thanks!
