Description

Psychoanalysis and Ethics in Documentary Film by Agnieszka Piotrowska explores how documentary subjects' expectations, desires, and fears intersect with those of filmmakers, raising important ethical questions. This accessible book delves into the four fundamental concepts of psychoanalysis and documentary film, reviewing the field of documentary practice and presenting a thorough examination of its ethics. The second edition includes an updated introduction by the author and a new chapter on 'Stories We Tell', co-authored by Sarah Polley. The result is a nuanced exploration of the complex relationships between filmmakers, participants, and the stories told in documentary film. This book is essential reading for those interested in film studies, psychoanalysis, and documentary-making, offering valuable insights into the process of creating contemporary documentaries.
