In 2005, Wu's film career started with his first film, Beijing or Bust,[5] a documentary about the trials and tribulations of six American born Chinese who chose to return to Beijing and the cultural adaptation they faced. The film was shown in the 6th Annual San Diego Asian Film Festival in 2005.[6] Wu's second film, The Road to Fame, follows students at China's top drama academy, as they prepare to stage a Chinese version of the musical Fame.[7] A co-production with BBC Storyville, VPRO, DR and CNEX, the film premiered at Sheffield Doc/Fest in June 2013. His third film, People's Republic of Desire,[1] about China's live streaming crazed, premiered at the 2018 South by Southwest and won the Grand Jury Award for Best Documentary Feature.[2] Wu then released All in My Family, a Netflix Original Documentary short, in 2019.
In 2020, Wu worked with two collaborators remotely on 76 Days, about the 76 days of lockdown of Wuhan at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The film premiered at Toronto International Film Festival in September 2020.[8] Distributed by MTV Documentary Films and Dogwoof, it was named a Critic’s Pick by The New York Times. In 2021, the film was shortlisted for the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature, nominated for the Gotham Awards, and won a Peabody Award[3] and a Primetime Emmy Award for Exceptional Merit in Documentary Filmmaking[4]
From 2014-2016, Wu was a fellow at New America, a D.C.-based think tank.[9]
