A style of documentary-making used in film and television, the name derived from the idea that events are seen candidly, as a fly on a wall might see them. In the purest form of Fly On The Wall documentary-making, the camera crew is as unintrusive as possible; however it is also common for participants to be interviewed, often by an off-camera voice.

The fly-on-the-Wall style is commonly used in the genre known as reality television, as well as cinéma vérité, and has also been extensively parodied.
