|
|
After touring the UK with Visible Secrets: Hong Kong’s Women Filmmakers, London will get the double screening of MING MING (dir: Susie Au) and VISIBLE SECRETS (dir: Ann Hui) at the Riverside Studios on Thursday 25th February.
Whilst first-time director Au makes a stylish and attractive debut feature, it is the work of veteran helmer, Hui that stands out in the programme. For those who caught the entire festival up in Manchester, they would have seen a selection of her films such as July Rhapsody, The Postmodern Life of My Aunt, Night and Fog, and The Way We Are. Notable for her subtle social-commentary approach and non-commercial subject matter, The Way We Are was a critical success in Hong Kong and the film won many awards including Best Director for Hui.
From the auteur to the avant-garde, Hong Kong cinema has a strong tradition of women working behind the camera.
