| description | The lightness of the filmic device, the versatility of the researcher-cinematographer, the principle of non-intervention on the observed reality and the experimental character of the ethnofilmic approach constitute, on the one hand, the expression of a scientific resourcefulness that allows ethnofilmic research to be carried out with limited financial means. On the other hand, this sobriety of gestures and means can be considered as the most appropriate methodological strategy to describe and represent reality. Based on a comparison of two professional documentary production experiences—one for television, with considerable means and using a semi-industrial logic; the other relying on self-production, with limited means and according to a craft logic—the relationships between the restitution of reality, the organization of work and the technical means employed are analyzed. The analysis shows that frugality makes it possible to control the means of production and thus to achieve a certain autonomy at work. The article defends the idea that autonomy and the limitation of means contribute to a faithful representation of the observed reality. |
