To reach audiences beyond the cities where our physical screenings take place, we are once again presenting an online programme featuring a wider range of distinctive works. This programme is made possible with the support of Amnesty International Hong Kong Overseas.
This year’s selection brings together voices and stories that challenge dominant narratives and make space for LGBTQ+ experiences and marginalised communities. Moving between experimental documentary, digital reconstruction and other forms of moving image, the programme explores how cinema can approach questions of identity, power, memory and belonging in unexpected ways.
Keep Rolling: Independent Filmmaking Project 動態Rollingー獨立電影拍攝計劃
Hong Kong | 2022 | 108’ | Colour and B&W
In Cantonese, English, Minnan with Chinese and English subtitles
Dir.: Lo Yan Chi 羅恩賜, Chow King Kan Kingston 周敬勤, Yiu Man Kwan Jason 姚敏堃, Kwok Chung Yee Erica 郭頌儀
In the epidemic era, everything seems to be frozen. The four short films from Keep Rolling capture the alienation and sorrow through the lens. In Same Boat , Yin had to take care of her grandma at home every day, and they shared each other’s sentiments as if they were sitting on the same boat. Rubbish Ban sees a young man, Genius, whose boss told him to throw a cardboard box far away, but he could barely find any trash cans. Is Hong Kong, which can’t even hold a trash can, still the city that we used to be familiar with? In A Letter from Prison , film director James planned to write letters to Man to support him through his hard time in prison. Although he was outside the walls, the freedom of his mind was also bound by invisible shackles. April’s Interlude tells the story of a cosmetologist, Shan, during the shutdown of the epidemic. When learning about her old friend’s reappearance after years, Shan felt that the friend who returned had an incomprehensible detachment from what had happened in Hong Kong over the past few years.

Dir.: Anson Sham 岑軍諺
