Summary |
Documentary has never attracted such audiences, never been produced with such ease from so many corners of the globe, never embraced such variety of expression. The very distinctions between the filmed, the filmer, and the spectator are being dissolved. This text addresses what this means for documentary's 21st century position as a genus in the 'class' cinema; for its foundations as, primarily, a scientistic, eurocentric and patriarchal discourse; and for its future in a world where assumptions of photographic image integrity cannot be sustained |
