Abstract
This paper aims to reconstruct some of the expectations associated to cinema and its possibility of a true representation of reality. Thus, we start analyzing the first film theories of the twentieth century and Vertov´s avant-garde project. Then, we make a brief mention of some of the reasons that explain why these expectations began to be called into question since the end of World War II and were definitely abandoned in the 70s. Finally, we consider the way in which the film director Alexander Kluge has resumed the realistic project and has sought to reconfigure it in order to save its validity in the new media context.Downloads
