2014 Hong Kong Contemporary Film Showcase

Date

10/18(Sat)–23(Thu)

Location Eslite art house C, Eslite Spectrum Songyan Store

The City on the Silver Screen

A good film either captures the spirit of the times, or exerts a powerful influence on the zeitgeist. The 2014 Hong Kong Contemporary Film Showcase will be screening 13 commercial feature films produced in 2013 ranging from small to medium-sized productions, as well as three compilations of award-winning short films. Many of these films have been topical works, stirring much excitement and debate upon their release. As Hong Kong and Taiwan share much in common in terms of social trends and film culture, audiences are sure to find much to identify with in the retrospective.

Some of the directors and actors in the selected films will attend the opening ceremony of the film showcase on 18 October, and meet with the Taiwanese audiences. Previews and campus screenings will also be held prior to the official showcase.
