(CNN) The director of the Paris Hilton documentary, "This Is Paris," says that before making the eye-opening film about the heiress and entrepreneur, she, like most people, had misunderstood Hilton for decades. "They saw all these parallels between 'Bombshell' and Paris," Dean says, adding that her first thought was "interesting." All that changed when she began to spend time with Hilton at her home and traveled with her around the world. The director reconnected Hilton to a few former classmates from Provo, who say they also suffer PTSD from their time at the school. "This Is Paris," a YouTube Originals documentary, is currently available for free (with ads) on Hilton's YouTube channel.
