I never decided to become a documentary filmmaker; that is to say, to camp once and for all inside a given space. Besides, I hate that term: documentary filmmaker. It helps to erect a boundary around a genre that has never ceased to evolve and whose porosity, shifting contours, and almost consanguine ties with the genre it is always set against, fiction, are on the contrary well known. For it is indeed true that images are less faithful to “reality” than to the intentions of those who produce them.
