“Them Call We Gypsy”

Summary/Abstract: The topic of this study is Invernomuto: Negus, a documentary film made by an Italian duo of artists – an example of applying the cinema as a non-historical method of conducting historical studies. A juxtaposition of research shown in the film concerning the Italian colonial war waged in Ethiopia with the contents of lectures constituting sequences makes it possible to assume that the interlocutor not only participates in the film but also negotiates his appearance in front of the camera, using it for the purpose of realising his intentions. Co-dependencies between the makers of the film and those who appear in it allow us to regard the latter as “users” (Michel de Certeau) of the cinema.
