Part 1
Dziga Vertov pioneered a type of documentary filmmaking that required no actors or sets, and was about capturing life as it is. His ideas led to the cinema verite movement, which according to Wikipedia is:
“… a style of documentary filmmaking, combining naturalistic techniques with stylized cinematic devices of editing and camerawork, staged set-ups, and the use of the camera to provoke subjects. It is also known for taking a provocative stance toward its topics. In French the term means, roughly, “cinema of truth.”
As you will see in the intro of Man With A Movie Camera, which you can view in it’s entirety here on IPMM, it says:
“This experimental work aims at creating a truly international absolute language.”
