The pioneering documentary directed by anthropologist and director Jean Rouch and sociologist Edgar Morin, Chronicle of a Summer, is one of the first examples of the cinéma vérité movement. The film begins with Rouch and Morin discussing whether people can behave sincerely in front of the camera. Throughout the documentary, the directors examine social issues with actual participants, who are then shown the footage to comment on how realistic their self-portraits are.
A series of small and rather similar nudes Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu and Eren Eyüboğlu produced in the early 1930s almost resemble a ‘visual conversation’ that focus on a pictorial search. It is also possible to find the visual reflections of this earlier search in the synthesis Bedri Rahmi Eyüboğlu reached with his stylistic abstractions in the 1950s.
