Animators picture the different faces of the city with their imagination. Under the lion rock live Ho Wai-kwan’s Eye Bags and Lee Kwok-wai’s Resettlement Memory; Wong Tsz-ying, Shek Ka-chun and Wong Chun-long’s Losing Sight of a Longed Place is a simple story of a queer youth who has no way but to face pressure from family and society; Join Lee Pak- yee Aggie to pay an outrageous visit to the Muteum; Mak Siu- fung’s Cross Blade Kill and Kongkee’s Departure are journeys that delve in humanity through creativity and imagination.
 
 
Work Introduction
 
Eye Bags
Ho Wai-kwan
Col / 5’45″ / In Cantonese with Chinese and English subtitles
 
Through the monologue, Talia tells her experience of having a chronic insomnia problem. She does not know the reasons that cause this problem and eventually she meets Ah Gum, the goldfish who lives in her eye bags. They develop an interesting relationship.
 
Resettlement Memory
Lee Kwok-wai
Col / 6’37”/ In Cantonese with Chinese and English subtitles
 
A fire in the 1950s destroyed the entire cottage area. In the seven-storey government resettlement block for the victims, it is not uncommon for a family of five to live together in a mere 200 square feet flat. Accustomed to quantifying income, population, and land supply, how should we quantify the process whereby a flat transforms into a home?
 
Losing Sight of a Longed Place
Wong Tsz-ying, Shek Ka-chun, Wong Chun-long
Col / 7’ 45”/ In Cantonese with Chinese and English subtitles
 
This film depicts a young homosexual who fights for his rights and that of people around him, but the barrier between himself and his father and the lack of progress in society put him in a state of confusion and self-reflection.
 
Muteum
Lee Pak-yee Aggie
Col / 4′ 09″/ No dialogue and subtitles
 
In a museum, we should behave well, from outer to inner, from shallow to its deepest, seriously and sincerely.
 
Cross Blade Kill
Mak Siu-fung
Col / 6′ 00″ / In English with English subtitles
 
He kills not for money, but that he enjoys killing, or perhaps he is trying to get justice for his master. This time, his job is to kill a plot maker. The reason is not important; what’s important is that he wants to tell the plot maker, “The bullet you fired will eventually come back to hit you on the head.”
 
Departure
Kongkee
Col / 8’00”/ In Cantonese with Chinese and English subtitles
 
A co-creation by Kongkee, Weigo Lee and Tsui Ka-hei. This is a sci-fi set in the 60s Hong Kong with a fictional history and a rewritten future. Illustrated with mesmerising colours, a robot is in search of the secrets of souls.
