Depuis l'invention des frères Lumière, actualités, documentaires, reportages nous convient à des visions toujours plus " immédiates ", plus proches, plus " vraies " de la réalité " sur le vif ". Que valent ces miroirs argentiques et électroniques des événements ? Que nous donnent-elles à voir et croire ces doublures auxquelles nous confions la tâche paradoxale de nous démontrer le monde et d'en produire la vérité ? A travers l'évolution historique des formes du documentaire et du reportage, cet ouvrage questionne nos manières de représenter et voir la réalité à travers le discours des images, ainsi que les régimes de croyance que suscite la soi-disant " objectivité " des prises de vues. Il explore les figures du langage cinématographique en tant que façons de découper, traduire, réfléchir le monde, de découvrir de nouvelles relations sujet/objet, réel/fiction, voir/savoir, ou au contraire de reproduire des clichés vraisemblables et réducteurs. Tableau vivant du cinéma primitif, invention du montage, documentarisme social et propagande guerrière, néo-réalisme italien et documentaire joué à l'américaine, nouvelles vagues d'après-guerre détournant le " comment-taire " et retournant les images, cinéma-vérité et cinéma direct, dogme de la preuve par l'image, caméra subjective et machines de vision, théâtres de la mémoire (archives, témoins, reconstitutions), interférences fiction/documentaire : telles sont les entrées de ce parcours critique où réalité et fiction, vrai et faux jouent à cache-cache. André Bazin ne disait-il pas que " le cadre est un cache " ? Tant par ce qu'il montre que par ses tâches aveugles, l'écran " du réel " apparaît comme une matière esthétique sans équivalent pour l'analyse historique de nos " projections " du monde.
