Hello,All documentaries are constructed in some way to force a narrative. And they are certainly told from the pov which makes for entertainment. I'm not a fan of filmmakers getting their subject to meet their long lost parent just for the purpose of narrative. Those are stories forced by the filmmakers and not the subject.Even the Up series had subjects dropping out because they felt the way they were portraid was not their true selves.Ginger Liuwww.gliumedia.comwww.gliuphoto.comOn 8 Jun 2019 13:00, frameworks-requ...@jonasmekasfilms.com wrote:I recommend a double feature of Kiarostami’s “Close Up” followed by the feature length Nathan For You episode “Finding Frances”. On Fri, Jun 7, 2019 at 8:29 AM Anderwald + Grond  wrote:(The first part of) David Perlov’s Diaryhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89oPit-zHVURuth + Leo

So far, I've been able to favor "Megacities" by Michael Glawogger, "David Hotlzman's Diary" by Jim McBride and "The stories we tell" by Sarah Polley. And yes, I've watched F for Fake more than enough ;)I've also been getting into dissecting film and theater down to, for lack of better terms, compound elements. I've been looking into the works of Bazin, Kracauer and Metz and how they have explored the concept of spectatorship and illusion within the realm of photography, film and sometimes theater. So anything that would focus on deconstructing truth or incorperate cinema theory. In addition to diaries and essays, I'd also be open to film/video installations/performances that share the same focus.

There are a plethora of doc films that engage strategies that do this, but the writings of Bill Nichols and Stella Bruzzi on performative doc are really important for this discussion.Check out New Documentary (latest edition) by Stella Bruzzi.On Thu, Jun 6, 2019 at 6:13 PM Morgan Hoyle-Combs

‘Public Hearing’ by James Kienitz Wilkins re-performs a court transcript with 
actors only in close-ups, shot in black and white. It may trouble the waters 
nicely.

Re: [Frameworks] Documentaries-diaries-essays or video/film installations that play with truth or cinema theory

2019-06-08 Thread Bernard Roddy
Hi Dave:

I was thinking about the way in which I tend to experience a personal work,
which could be closer to identifying with the maker or with someone who
wants to make such a work. And the sense of truth that would bear on such
work might better be compared to the significance of an explosion, the
blossoming of a field, or the rainbow at dawn: truth as a manifestation,
rather than as a mirror that gets it right, an image that is indiscernible
from the reality. I have long felt a scholar's hand in the insistence on
truth conceived as representation, and perhaps of equal significance to
this question would be the history of the lie. We are thus moving away from
a conception of language and the sign that is founded on representation, a
conception that has long been identified with the image of God as something
with a design for man and man as either living up to it or failing to do
so, truth as a plan that is fulfilled or subverted. That is a truth that
one can consider without cost, without anything at stake, a question for
the professional academic. It's all introductory documentary, however. The
books I am aware of include a couple that take up works the writers prefer
to think about for what is unsaid in them or otherwise unsayable.
