Documentary film-making is one of the most vibrant areas of media activity in China, with many independent film-makers producing documentaries on a range of sensitive socio-political matters, often bringing a strongly ethical approach.

The book demonstrates the success of Chinese independent documentary film-making, often winning award-winning titles and appearing at international film festivals.
