The Hongkongers
Details
Sinopsis
The conflicts between two generations, between the urban and the rural are intensively examined. When a grandfather and his grandchild experience loss concurrently, they realize the older generation’s protection of the ancestral land and the youth’s defense of the city are cut from the same cloth. Decades have passed, but the people of Hong Kong still do not have an answer for their rootlessness.

Bold, beautiful, and utterly captivating. 'The Hongkongers' is a cinematic achievement that resonates long after the credits roll.
