Himself
This feature documentary is a portrait of Peter Watkins, an Oscar®-winning British filmmaker who, for the past 4 decades, has proved that films can be made without compromise. With the proliferation of TV channels, documentaries are enjoying an unprecedented boom fuelled by audiences seeking an alternative to infotainment. But now documentary filmmaking, too, finds itself constrained by the imperatives of television. However, there is a rebel resisting this uniformity of the spirit. Pre-eminent among today's documentary filmmakers concerned about this mind-numbing standardization, Peter Watkins has never strayed from either his principles or the cause.

1970년 미국은 대외적으로 베트남전의 수렁에 빠져있고, 대내적으로는 흑인 인권신장, 반전운동 등의 내홍에 빠져있다. 이에 미국 정부는 국가 비상사태를 선언하고, 평화주의자, 탈영병, 무정부주의자 같은 이들을 즉결 재판에 넘긴다. 중형을 선고받을 수도 있는 이 재판에서 대다수는 감옥형을 대신할 사막에 위치한 퍼니시먼트 파크라 칭해진 징벌원 행을 택한다. 물 한 모금 공급되지 않는 여건 속에서, 이들은 사흘 동안 인간사냥을 펼치는 경찰들을 피해 사막 어딘가에 꽂혀 있을 미국 국기를 찾아내야 한다. 이 영화는 영화제를 제외하고는 극장상영이 수년간 금지되거나, 18세 이상 관람가로 개봉되었다. 와킨스 감독은 영화의 가상현실이 더욱더 현실성을 가지도록 흔히, 다큐멘터리 또는 매스 미디어 현장 보도의 코드를 그대로 이용한다. 끊임없이 흔들리는 어깨에 멘 카메라, 정면으로 카메라를 바라보거나 직접 인터뷰에 응하는 비직업 배우들로 구성된 등장인물들, 촬영을 방해하며 손으로 카메라 렌즈를 가리는 경찰들… 현실을 패러디를 통해 풍자하는 페이크 다큐멘터리의 대부인 피터 와킨스 감독은 이런 장치들을 통해, 가상현실이 더욱 강화된 현장감과 현실감을 획득하면서, 관객들을 혼란에 빠트리게 하고, 관객들에게 이 가상의 현실이 픽션의 세계를 벗어나 자신들 앞의 현실로 다가올 수 있음을, 어쩌면 벌써 다른 형태로 다가와 있음을 되새기게 한다.
