DIRECTORS WHO EXPLORE THIS
Agnès Varda France

She pioneered the essay film form, blending found footage, personal reflection, and archival material to create intimate documentaries that question memory and representation.

 Chris Marker France

His experimental use of still photographs, film fragments, and voice-over in works like 'Sans Soleil' fundamentally challenges how documentary footage constructs meaning and temporality.
