HKG | 2020 | dir. Man Lim Chung, with Ann Hui, Nansun Shi, Fruit Chan
On a buzzing red carpet, a 70-year-old short-haired woman strides towards the stage with confidence. Behind the red carpet, it’s a muddy path that leads to a movie studio in New Territories, Hong Kong. To her, glory and hardship are nothing more than just different paths that lead to the world of cinema.
40 years have passed, Ann Hui experienced numerous ups and downs in her career, but the turn of the tide has never threatened her dedication and integrity towards movies. Her works embody her humanistic concerns and deep interests for the people of Hong Kong. On the lonely journey of discovery, her life is now full because of movies.
Ann Hui has been awarded the Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the 77th Venice International Film Festival in 2020.
