Abstract

With the advent of the new media era, the constant innovation of media technology has transformed documentaries from theatrical distribution to the new media era, forming a new pattern of documentary production and distribution. The Firsts in Life is one of the best Chinese humanities documentaries in recent years and has been considered as “one of the best documentaries to watch in 2020”. The documentary has attracted a lot of attention and discussion in China and around the world. At the same time, the success of The Firsts in Life has also attracted attention in the academic circle. However, most of the studies on The Firsts in Life are still at the level of its narrative content, while there are still some gaps in transmission path. This paper will explore the ritual construction logic and process of The Firsts in Life based on the perspective of ritualized communication, using two research methods: case study and virtual ethnography. In view of this, the author will further explore its cultural significance and aim to play an active role in the future research of Chinese humanities documentaries.
