| Abstract: | As institutions such as the Institute for Scientific Film in Göttingen, Germany, look back on their accomplishments and look forward to what their role may be in the future, it is worthwhile to untangle some of the strands involved in the practice of “visual anthropology” and to clarify our thinking on the shared and distinctive characteristics of ethnographic films and of visual research material. |
