Her research interests include Chinese independent documentary, the history of Chinese cinema, rural sociology, as well as women and gender studies. Her dissertation, entitled Filming Villages: The Representation of Rural China in Chinese Independent Cinema since 2000, examines how independent cinema opens up an aesthetic space to village experience and helps us to explore the issues of rural culture.
