Inspired by a sensational 2013 family murder, Henry Cheung partnered up with his friend Angus Tong to murder and dismember his parents. In the courtroom, two veteran lawyers, Wilson Ng and Carrie Yau, defend the pair pleading not guilty. The prosecutor Allen Chu suggests the murder was a calculated move for money. But the plot thickens when Ng and Yau begin to present their case, and when Tong rebuts all accusations on his own. The truth becomes all the more elusive as the defendants play the role of ‘genius’ and ‘idiot’ in court. In the breakroom, discussions between the nine jury members spiraled into debates of right and wrong.

TO BE CONTINUED 尚未完场

In the forgotten legend of Harry Odell, Hong Kong’s first impresario, a rediscovery of the city’s soul awaits. Odell was a Cairo-born, Shanghaibred Russian Jew who stamped his mark on the cultural life of post-war Hong Kong. His hopeful, if chronically loss-making adventures, pushed the cultural frontiers of his adopted home.

Cantonese with English and Chinese Subtitles 粤语,中英文字幕 Southeast Asian Premiere 东南亚首映

What began as a campaign to save the iconic State Theatre morphed into five years of research to find those who witnessed Odell in action. The result: a film that is a study of one indomitable pioneer, and a soul-searching journey of what defines Hong Kong.

《尚未完场》述说的是一个香港演艺场 地发展的故事。一代娱乐大亨欧德礼 是璇宫戏院 (后改为皇都戏院) 的创办 人。他的演艺事业亏损惨重,却为香港 文化开辟了新天地,被称为「香港文化 史前人物」。在那个白天上映黄飞鸿和 林黛电影的大戏院,晚上有名家如Isaac Stern、Fournier坐镇,华洋共处,雅俗 共赏,只此一家。标志香港新时代的大 会堂开幕,第一场演奏会正是由欧德礼 承办。一九九七年皇都戏院结业,欧德 礼的辉煌过去仿似正式落幕。然而,透 过徐岱灵、祁凯达执导的纪录片,我们 得以唤回那个时代的记忆。
