Fiction, documentaries and voids
(Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2025) Lesmes López , Carlos Eduardo; CICANT - Centre for Research in Applied Communication, Culture, and New Technologies
The following piece focuses on how the inclusion of fictional elements into documentaries allows for a different relationship with the film, allowing creators to explore different narrative avenues, characters to relate in a different way to the events and for the audience to actively engage with the film.I rely on two of my previous short documentary films and my current research as examples where I have used fiction inside the documentary form, and I examine how the insertion of fiction into the narrative, allows for a different perspective of the events depicted on each film.My research centers on the relationship between roots, identity and belonging, explored through documentary film. I use the notions of affect, embodied memory, and relationality together with Bergson's understanding of time and memory to explore my own family's story and its voids through a documentary film.
