This study aims to understand, from a comprehensive approach, the paradigmatic scope of the Man with the MovieCamera (1929), from Dziga Vertov, to learning about filmmaking as art and as thought. The meta-cinema of Vertovcontributed to dissolve the contradiction between fiction film and documentary, re-presenting the movements ofsocial life, in which injects a paradoxical rhythm of likelihood and surreality. Prodigal in experimental takes andassemblages, the film goes beyond the “transparency” and the fictional dramatization of the film, as well as the literalreporting of documentary cinema. Live both in its conception paradigms of narration (diegesis, mimesis, continuity)and epistemological (plans, editing). The film, based on ideas of “camera-eye” and “cinema-verity”, captures a rangeof social events and exhibits the potentialities for experimentation in filmmaking. This movie shows, exemplarily,other rhythms - of thought and of aesthetic experience – underlying the visual and discursive rhythms.
