Resumen:
Sumario:In this article, we describe and reflect on models of representation in the construction of an ethnographic documentary, and we account for how collaborative ethnography permeated part of the process. These reflections, intertwined in concrete situations and with socially situated people, allow us to challenge more normative knowledge about the implications of participation and intervention when working with people in extreme situations. We share aspects that can contribute to similar projects, in relation to starting points, incorporation of the results of previous ethnographic research, intervention activities, as well as the presence of anthropologists and filmmakers alongside the interlocutors on the scene. We will show that the mediation of the camera creates a reflective dialectic that complicates the interactions of those involved in an audiovisual production. Likewise, we analyze the importance of confronting the visualities involved in audiovisual projects to orient themselves towards a politicization of images.
