{"product_id":"david-saunders-documentary-9780415473101","title":"Documentary","description":"Dave Saunders' spirited introduction to documentary covers its history, cultural context and development, and the approaches, controversies and functions pertaining to non-fiction filmmaking. Saunders examines the many methods by which documentary conveys meaning, whilst exploring its differing societal purposes.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter a historical consideration of international documentary production, the author examines the impact of recent technological developments on the production, distribution and viewing of non-fiction. In addition, he explores the increasingly hazy distinctions between factual and dramatic formats, discussing 'reality television', the 'docu-drama', and less orthodox approaches including animated and fantastical representations of reality.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDocumentary encompasses a broad range of academic discourse around non-fiction filmmaking, introducing readers to the key filmmakers, major scholars, central debates and critical ideas relating to the form. This wide-ranging guidebook features global releases from the 1920s through to 2009, and includes films such as:\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNanook of the North (1922)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Man with the Movie Camera (1929)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNight Mail (1936)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nNight and Fog (1955)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nPrimary (1960)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nRoger and Me (1989)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nTarnation (2003)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nMy Winnipeg (2006)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSicko (2007)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nWaltz With Bashir (2008)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSay My Name (2009)\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAnvil: The Story of Anvil (2009)","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53914601357654,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.momoxbooks.com\/products\/david-saunders-documentary-9780415473101","provider":"momoxbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
