Steyerl talks about how the documentary-style “unbroken belief” is questioned. He believes that many films do not reveal the truth directly, but rather their emotional effects. As people empathize, they overlook some of the images and effects of the film itself. We only believe in the right thing, not what could be the truth. The stories that are true, but the composition of the film is significant in how viewers are impacted and influenced to believe. Fiction utilizes truth and belief in the same way that Steyerl describes in the film Close Up; this expression is done visually in by Abbas Kiarostami. Even when the credibility of the documentary is reduced and people still tend to have belief, due to the amount of uncertainties it is impossible to take everything into account. When describing how fiction and truth work together in film, the  truth is the what fiction is built upon while fiction is an artistic expression of reality. Fiction is constructed on the basis of truth, and after being processed, truth becomes fascinating fiction. When people are attracted to fiction it is simpler to inform the truth. 

The significance of the authenticity and representation of the truth in the media that is consumed by us everyday is that we are exposed to it by choice. Whatever is put in front of us is perceived as part if the truth. Documentaries have the ability to create false truth in media. They make us familiar with the world, but they do not give us the opportunity to participate in the world. They make a difference to us, but they are hostile. Questions about the truthfulness of documentary claims are actually part of this series of emotional simulations. The closer you are to reality, the more focused and unstable it becomes. Let’s call this the uncertainty principle of modern documentaries. Simply said, the sooner the belief is gone, the less you see.
