RESUMO

This dissertation investigates the similarities between the concept of "devicedocumentary" and some experiences with "video-letters"; in other words, it seeks to understand the process in which the exchange of videographic messages between people - transformed into characters by and in the film (considering that the documentarist can become one of them) - may become a strategy to make documentaries. The vídeo "Another City" is part of the research, at one time a result of the investigations and the object for reflection. More than the work itself, the point of interest for study has been the process film making, which, completely entwined with the course of Master Degree in Arts, has gone through several transformations along the two and a half years of this production. These transformations became the problematics that links together text and film. The concepts of "fable dynamic" and "indirect cinema" are the basis for the construction of an idea of a documental cinema that does not relate to the real, neither to frozen identities; a cinema that does not seek the truth and has no certainties. This cinema wants to talk about processes and transformations, encounters and relations. The concept of "device-documentary" is about a documentary that is made from artificials, games, delimitations and plays that give rise to new relations, situations, changing of positions among the actors (documentarist, team, characters). A filmic reality that does not exist before the film, and that ceases to exist once it is finished
