abstract="There are no images without a “dangerous” scene setting. The imagetic process by nature involves particular kinds of knowledge, just as any kind of writing involves elaborations, choices and uses of appropriate and pertinent forms. My intention is to show that a fictional mode of production deliberately chosen and clearly expressed allows us to make evident specific levels of social realities that expand the classical field of anthropology. It is possible to mix Vertov's pursuit of a confrontation of images and his development of montage editing, an encompassing descriptive intention that emerges from the particular conditions of a given situation, with a specific exchange amounting to a shared interrogation. This idea ia developed over the course of this paper as a dialogic or transactional anthropology.<p />",
