SEASON
The past year showed us that where documentary cinema is concerned, the big screen belongs equally well to classic filmmakers such as Wim Wenders and young authors such as Anna Hints and Kaouther Ben Hani. Their pictures prove that documentary is still evolving and addresses previously overlooked topics, as the authors creatively exploit the documentary form and techniques of filmmaking and presentation. Hence the new definition of exposure in front of the camera in Smoke Sauna Sisterhood, the artistic use of technology to present Anselm Kieffer’s sculptures in film, and the bursting of the boundaries between enacting and reliving memories in Four Daughters.
