From the early dictation-oriented documentary film to the non-fiction feature film. In his video works, the stories of his hometown of Leshan and his family as a Sichuan opera family are the themes that have appeared many times. Qiu Jiongjiong’s films have attracted widespread attention, to a large extent, because of his identity as a painter. There is a kind of painterly in his films—"Qiu Jiongjiong is sensitive to theatricality and increasingly adept in the logic of film language. Jokingly portraying the mundane flavours of the little people as legendary texts greater than life, and the lyrical, intimate, and humorous audio-visual means make Qiu Jiongjiong appear to be very important in dealing with the history and political reality of the country.” (Mr. Qiu Believes, Kang Kang)
