 Abbas Kiarostami 's film Ten ( 2002 ) was an experiment that used digital cameras to virtually eliminate the director . Kiarostami fastened cameras to the dashboard of a car , and then allowed his actors to act . There was no film crew in the car , and no director . There is no camera movement , other than the movement of the car which carries the camera . There is minimal cutting and editing . This new direction is towards a digital micro cinema , defined as micro @-@ budget filmmaking allied with digital production .
