This article emerges from the assumption that
representing reality in documentary raises specific
complex ethical issues. This is due to the fact that
documenting an event partly results from the
filmmaker’s mediation with the historical world. The
choices involved in this process are subjective, biased
and creative. In fact, representing reality results from a
particular tension established between that which I
represent and how I represent it. From this tension
several ethical issues with regard to the filmmaker’s
mediation with reality may emerge. This paper aims to
revise and confront key literature on this subject to
discuss and deconstruct the process of mediation
and the ethical issues involved in this process. The
key questions to answer are: What role does
mediation plays in representing reality? What ethical
issues may emerge from this process? Do filmmakers
explore “others” to satisfy their own personal needs as
artists? Is it possible to control or regulate filmmakers’
mediation with reality? Can we develop a set of
parameters or strategies that can be considered
ethically more appropriate for representing the world?
