Three Concepts on the Authenticity of Documentary Films
At the end of the 20th century,postmodernism affected the research field of documentary films,and Western scholars began to re-discuss documentary films,resulting in a large number of new documentary theories and critical methods.The discussion about the concept of truth in documentaries is becoming increasingly complex and profound.From the perspectives of image ontology,hypothetical assertions,and epistemology,reality is no longer an absolute concept,but a relative choice.Documentary films not only record reality,but also embody an aesthetic style,which is an artistic reflection of reality.The concept of authenticity in documentaries involves subjectivity at different levels,but this does not hinder their pursuit of historical truth.When examining documentary films,it is important to recognize that the so-called"facts"and"truth"do not exist a priori,but are constructed within a specific social and cultural framework.The documentary film director takes an aesthetic perspective and constructs the authenticity of the story through narrative,in order to achieve the goal of leading to historical truth.
