Abstract
Power represents a problem for documentary, raising questions about the politics
and ethics of representation. In this article the notion of power in documentary is
explored. The influence of domination as a model for power relations within documentary
is challenged and a Foucauldian notion of power relationships suggested as
an alternative way of conceptualising the documentary-maker participant relationship.
Drawing on empirical research with documentary maker Tom Zubrycki and
participant Lyn Rule, this article brings to light the complexities of power and the
importance of trust in the context of documentary.
