| EPISODE 4: VERA MAURINA PRESS || A.2: NARRATIVE FIELDWORK |

A.2: Cinema as Relationship, Not Reportage. Agile Cinema® enters the terrain of cultural historiography not to document the present, but to dwell inside its unfinishedness. Borrowing Phil Graham’s phrase—"a first rough draft of history that will never really be completed"—this act refuses closure in favor of encounter. Here, media is not mined from subjects but co-authored through time. Interviews, micro-films, and speculative portraits emerge from months of shared process—gestures of mutual recognition that resist the flattening speeds of the algorithmic present. This is counter-cinema: slow, dialogic, relational. A refusal of the churn. A wager on presence. Across four episodes, Narrative Fieldwork sketches a poetics of media as care, as score, as critical reflection, and as fashioned encounter.
