Direct Cinema is a documentary genre that originated between 1958 and 1962 in North America principally in the Canadian province of Quebec and the United States and developed by Jean Rouch in France. Similar in many respects to the cinéma vérité genre it was characterized initially by filmmakers’ desire to directly capture reality and represent it truthfully and to question the relationship of reality with cinema.
