"Hybrid Documentary and Beyond focusses on the theories, production techniques, ethical implications and impact of hybrid documentaries. Challenging the common conceptualisation of hybrid documentary as a simple combination of fact and fiction, the author explores not just what hybrid documentaries are but why and how they are made, and what real world consequences they have on the subjects, on practitioners and on audiences. Through a combination of theoretical analysis and practical case studies she demonstrates that making and researching hybrid documentaries can be creatively liberating for all involved from theorists, filmmakers, crews, participants to audiences, and that their production, appeal and impact are growing globally. Offering a fresh and bold perspective on hybrid documentary filmmaking, this book will be an essential resource to scholars, practitioners and students working in the areas of media arts and production, film studies and documentary"--
