 | This is the sandbox page where you will draft your initial Wikipedia contribution.
If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |
Article Draft
Lead
China's New Documentary Movement is a film and television movement beginning in the early 1990s that aimed to portray Chinese citizens using "on-the-spot realism" (Chinese: 纪实主义; pinyin: jishi zhuyi) in contrast to the state-sponsored socialist realism xianshi zhuyi (现实主义).[1]
History
The New Documentary Movement began forming around the same time as the 1989 Tiananmen Democracy Movement in response to the country's market reforms.[1] The movement provided an alternative to the national documentaries and newsreels with voiceover approved by the state, taking interest in letting subjects speak more spontaneously. It is considered a part of the Sixth Generation of Chinese cinema. The term was coined in 1992 at a small meeting of directors in Zhang Yuan's home.
The rise of digital video cameras also accompanied the movement, increasing access to filmmaking.
