I was filming a barber on the street. Random people from the street came to see what I was filming. As they saw my display they were shocked at my close-up video-image and tried to teach me that I have to film the whole scenario.

"The Chinese resist the photographic dismemberment of reality. Close-ups are not used. Even the postcards of antiquities and works of art sold in museums do not show part of something; the object is always photographed straight on, centered, evenly lit, and in its entirety."
Susan Sontag, 'On Photography'
