Hello!

I am a graduate from the University of Copenhagen with an M.A. in Film and Media Studies. Currently, I am a freelance film critic covering European film festivals for Chinese cinephiles. 

Research Interests and Experience

My research interests span from film theories, film aesthetics to the sociology of film. Primarily, I focus on feminist film criticism, gender/queer studies in cinema, and neoformalist film criticism in contemporary Chinese films.  

During the last two years, I have been working with film festivals and film institutions to gain experience within various realms such as festival production, documentary funding, film journalism, and curation. I coordinated industrial events in two international documentary festivals, including CPH:DOX 2021 and Nordisk Panorama 2019. At Cinemateket, the ancillary cinema of the Danish Film Institute, I assisted in curating a week-lengthy program of Chinese films and delivered a special lecture under the theme of From the Fifth to the Sixth Generation - Changes in Chinese Cinema in 40 years. Apart from these, I have started my correspondence with Chinese film media and represented them to cover the 74th Festival de Cannes and the 78th Venice International Film Festival in 2021.

My undergraduate thesis was ethnographic research of transgender groups in China, and my graduate dissertation, A Study of Form/Style and Female Consciousness of Lou Ye's Films, has received a distinction. 

Education Background

• 2018 - 2020, M.A. in Film and Media Studies, University of Copenhagen, Denmark
• 2014- 2018, B.A. in Internet and New Media, Sun Yat-sen University, China

I retain the firm conviction that an interdisciplinary vision will bring an academic with multiple and novel perspectives, and I humbly hope that I could bear an affinity to scholars who recognize the significance of this, as I come from a background transiting from social science studies to humanities studies.
