A Study on the Development and Change Strategies of Domestic Road Films in China

The analysis in this paper focuses on the Chinese domestic road movie, a film genre that has a late but promising start in China. The material for Chinese road movies often comes from people’s lives, but some trends in recent years have proved that Chinese road movie creators are trying to use road movies to show people’s inner desires, which are different from those in the past. The purpose of studying the development and changing strategies of road films is to promote the development of Chinese-made road films in the future and to find breakthroughs for developing Chinese road films in a social environment where pressure is gradually increasing. After introducing the development of Chinese road movies at various stages, based on the status quo of Chinese road movies in the past, the author points out the problems in the development process of Chinese road movies in terms of the solidification of the mode, the mishmash of genres and the spiritual kernel that has been gradually exposed. In the face of this situation, the author makes three suggestions in the light of the spiritual core of Chinese people and the current situation of modern society.
