This study is an attempt to identify the general principles and the functions of animation and investigate the possibilities of combining two separate genres: documentary and animation. Its central focus is "What can animation bring into the field of documentary film?" Chapter Two glances at the long-lasting relationship of animation and documentary, comparing a number of definitions for both fields, looks for a definition. Additionally, it lists various handmade animation techniques with several examples and tries to categorize different functions of animation. The Third Chapter analyzes a selection of films (A Is for Autism, Doctors' Life Between Life and Death, Ecumenopolis: City Without Limits and The People Who Try to Save the World) in the light of these functions. These case studies also include interviews with the directors, which explain their thinking processes and reasons for some of their choices. As a result, this study concludes in the thought that combining animation within the documentary film can create a meaningful form; a whole which is far more than sum of its parts.
