Together with experts we will discuss the question of filmmaking in anthropology: What is ethnographic film? How can its ethnographicness be characterized? Is there any difference between ethnographic film and a video documentary from field research? What are the advantages and limits of ethnographic film in comparison with text as a standard medium of academic production?
