Cheung Chau Diary 2014
Earlier this year veteran documentary filmmakers from Hong Kong and Taiwan worked with 20 young participants at the “Young Talent Training Camp” on Cheung Chau as they explored the island for interesting film topics. After eight days of heat, rain, frustration and the confusion of filming, they present us with 10 short films that make up Cheung Chau Diary 2014.

The films include people features such as Brother Key, An Ambulanceman, Postman and The Ukulele. Luthier; A Qilin Story of Two Generations, Flower Banner and Man Beside the Sea on preserving traditional businesses; Family on what it is like to be the small shop owners on the island while The Pier and Too Many Cheung Chau Guests are about life on the island. Through the films discover more about the different facets of life in Cheung Chau and the sense of community and tradition that lies in the heart of Hong Kong.

Cheung Chau Diary 2013
Selected shorts from last year’s “Youth Talent Training Camp” including Life, Neighbourhood and Brother Wah, which portray friendship among neighbours; Uncle Fai and The Hair Salon, which examine old traditional shops; The Savage in the Hill and A Man from Cheung Chau, which are character sketches, and Insects and On the Wretched Lives of Fish, which explore nature. The films investigate, each with its unique style, a broad range of subject matters, from intriguing characters to important social issues to the vanishing culture of old districts.
