This research report addresses epistemological issues confronted in the ongoing process of making an ethnographic documentary about transnationalism. It begins by considering the use of cinematic vocabulary as an analogy to narrativise the complexities of transnationalism. It then contextualises a specific documentary project within methodological debates in the ethnographic film-making community.
