Abstract
This chapter examines how the ethnographic documentary Incidents of Travel in Chichén Itzá internalizes critiques of, and offers a provocative alternative to, certain realist conventions of filmic representation through the practice of performative documentary. This exploration is not inspired by a taxonomic impulse to classify emerging techniques of documentary film production, but more to evaluate how this work reflects ongoing debates about the dilemmas of visually representing religious experience and cultural processes more broadly.
