OBJEKTIVITÁS VAGY SZUBJEKTÍV OBJEKTIVITÁS: HATÁRVONAL A DOKUMENTUM- ÉS A JÁTÉKFILM KÖZÖTT.

In my paper, I examine the borderline between documentary and feature films by enumerating the typical differences and similarities. My question is: in adapting a true story, is the documentary an unbiased presentation of reality, or rather a representation of the director’s subjective objectivity? I compare the adaptations of the popular story of Oskar Schindler: Steven Spielberg’s world hit feature film Schinder’s List and Jon Blair’s documentary, Schindler: The Real Story, examining the adaptation techniques of the two genres, focusing on the emphasis of the episodes of the well-known story in each of the two works. Finally, I show, through a case study of my own work, how the boundaries between the two cinematic genres are blurred in the processing of memory and documentary data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
