Wu Wenguang 吴文光 (born 1956 in Yunnan) is a Chinese independent documentary filmmaker. He is known internationally as one of the founding figures of Chinese independent documentary. His first film, Bumming in Beijing: The Last Dreamers, featured a large amount of handheld camerawork and unscripted interviews. This was a stark contrast to Chinese documentaries produced previously, which were generally carefully planned and controlled.{{Cite journal|title=Wu Wenguang: An Introduction|journal=Cinema Journal|date=Fall 2006|first=Chris|last=Berry|volume=46|issue=1|pages=133–136|doi=10.1353/cj.2007.0000 }}
