Summary

Documentary cinema is now in the same moment as in the times of the birth of the cinematographer. Whether it is in terms of production or in terms of exhibition, documentary films have fulfilled the double function of serving as a reflection of reality and feeding certain current aesthetics in fiction. In this study we will cover the most important milestones represented by documentary films in the production of Basque cinema: from the first images filmed by Antonio Saline in the Main Square of Vitoria to the most recent "Assassination in February", produced by Elías Querejeta.
