Mann confronts the moral didac- tism of TV and the intrusive nature of documentary. The objectivity of the camera(man) in relation to the subject is questioned along with the choice to film certain scenes or not. His video "One Eyed Bum ”, stands as a kind of artist 's reminder of the ambiguities of “honesty” and “simplicity”.
