Abstract
- The article discusses a documentary film "Domestic Violence" (2001) by Frederick Wiseman, which exposes the private issue of family violence in his direct cinema documentary. The film questions the relationship between a disturbing and violent situation and compassion from the audience. It also mentions his editing style, camera angles, and use of mise-en-scène that simulated the desired emotions and power dynamics the women experience.
