LANZA, Pablo. Documentary and noir: hybridization through fictional genre cinema. Dixit [online]. 2020, n.33, pp.15-25.  Epub 01-Dic-2020. ISSN 1688-3497.  https://doi.org/10.22235/d33.2374.

This article aims to work on the problem of hybridization in documentary film. Usually considered a feature of contemporary cinema, the objective is to carry out a diachronic review to revise this hypothesis; to do so, the focus will be on the exchange between the police genre and the documentary in two different moments of Argentine filmography: the fifties, with the fictional cycle of police officers called "semidocumentaries", and two contemporary documentaries that dialogue with the style of film noir. For the analysis, concepts such as hybrid and genre are reviewed, and the particularities of the documentary style in both periods are considered, where the passage from an impersonal style to first-person accounts can be observed.

Palabras clave : documentary; hybridization; investigative documentary; first person; film noir..
