Summary/Abstract: The author analyses Chris Marker’s movie Le mystère Koumiko (1967) in the context of ethnographic cinema, indicating its experimental and innovative potential which can be seen as an anticipation of the autoethnography category. The author argues that hiatus in content, as well as in form, understood as Marker’s deliberate strategy shows discrepancy between East and western orientalised projection of East.
