MFW 6 Episode 5: Human Connections in Short Film

In this English version of Kopi Selem, a hybrid online-offline session, we’ll talk to the winner of this year’s best short Film, Eric Tsang. Eric’s film, “A Thousand Sails” talks about the connection between an old woman and her sick neighbor’s son. Set in Hong Kong, a city in political turmoil, we’ll hear how filmmaking is struggling amidst the protest and pandemic. We’ll also hear opinions from the representative of the Youth Jury Board this year, Qiu, and her oversight on short films and human connection in this hard time.
