"The meaning of the new documentary movement in China is that it establishes a perspective from the grassroots, revealing ordinary people's everyday struggles and emotional lives. As a supplement and critique of the dominant ideology, it provides an opportunity for individuals to be present in the making of history. It is therefore a form of social democracy. The new documentary movement is the embodiment and the product of China's momentous social and human transformations since the 1980s."—Lu Xinyu, The New Documentary Movement in Contemporary China, 2003
