Usage Note
Documentario is a less frequent variant of documental, used mainly in formal or older written Spanish to mean 'documentary' or 'relating to documents'. In modern usage documental has largely replaced it as an adjective, while documental or documentario can also function as a noun meaning a documentary film, though documental dominates in that sense too.
