Hong Kong itself is a magnificent place. There is a feeling of being simultaneously in-between worlds, but firmly grounded at the same time. It is one of the true international cities in the world, and the constant motion of cultures here influences the language, the art, and style. It is traditional, cutting edge, and post-modern, all at once. Hong Kong has also had a spectacular cinematic history, where, for more than a century, the world has seen new work from Hong Kong that is as entertaining as it is challenging. One of their most acclaimed filmmakers hails from the Hong Kong New Wave, Ann Hui.
With over two dozen directing credits to her name, this director has worked on film in Hong Kong since the 1970s. Born in 1947 to a Chinese father and a Japanese mother, she worked in television before going to film school in London. She gradually moved from television to film, and by the 80s she had established herself as a director. She lived in Hong Kong since she was five years old, and her documentary style is often very autobiographical, and speaks to some of her major themes, cultural identity and nationhood. Her films are also very focused on exploring the notions of race, class, and gender, and often deal with mother-daughter relationships which reflect her own experiences with her mother. Ann Hui is an artist who has won multiple awards, and has come to represent a standard in filmmaking. Her cinematic voice is unmistakably Hong Kong, and her films, which have an uncharacteristic lack of action and fast pacing, illustrate that this is a voice that is forged through effort and compassion.
