Nick Broomfield

Nicholas Broomfield (born January 30, 1948, in London, England) is a British documentary filmmaker. His father, Maurice, is a photographer. He films with the absolute minimum of crew: just himself and one or two cameramen. This gives his documentaries a distinctive style, Broomfield himself often in shot holding the sound boom.

Early on, Broomfield's documentary style was very conventional Cin?ma v?rit?, the juxtaposition of observed scenes. The filmmaker would not provide much explanation by way of voice-over or text, rather letting the film talk for itself.
