Documentary is a fixation of the time and space that exist in reality, while a human being as the object of observation acts as a medium between the real and the on-screen space. Documentary is a way to apprehend the realities and problems that drive a man to confess “the truth”, which would sometimes make us tactfully look away. The documentary is where the ethic content resonates more powerfully than the aesthetics, and this is what constitutes is pain and tragedy”.
