| Documentary Film |
Documentary film is a broad category of visual expression that is based on the attempt,
in one fashion or another, to "document" reality. Although "documentary film" originally
referred to movies shot on film stock, it has subsequently expanded to include video
and digital productions that can be either direct-to-video or made for a television series.
Documentary, as it applies here, works to identify a "filmmaking practice, a cinematic
tradition, and mode of audience reception" that is continually evolving and is without
clear boundaries |
