Documentary Indexicality is an academic concept in documentary criticism that denotes the epistemological characteristic of documentary media wherein visual or auditory signs are understood to directly reference or physically result from the real-world events, persons, or objects they represent, thus distinguishing it from indexicality in fictional or synthetic media by its grounding in the causal connection between the recorded subject and the documentary trace.
