“Above all, documentary must reflect the problems and realities of the present. It cannot regret the past; it is dangerous to prophesy the future. It can, and does, draw on the past in its use of existing heritages but it only does so to give point to a modern argument.

Rather it is contemporary fact and event expressed in relation to human associations.” GivingHumansDoeFactsUseProblemRealityPastModernDangerousEventsRegretDrawsArgumentRelationHistoricalContemporaryHeritageAssociationDocumentariesDestinedReconstructionPast Regrets Author:Paul Rotha
