Let's Cines

Film is not only a kind of entertainment but also a form of art.  The Hong Kong Film Archive has selected ten films which are especially appropriate for students, including engaging and inspiring local animations, feature films that reflect the pulse of the times, and film adaptations of literary classics that align with the new senior secondary Chinese Language curriculum.  Post-screening talks conducted by well-known film critics will further enable students to understand the unique position that film holds in our history and culture.

Music has always played an important role in the McDull series. To save Springfield Kindergarten, the principal (Anthony Wong Chau-sang) draws from his own musical past and forms a children's choir.  The student choir tours around to put on fundraising performances, but their manager (Ronald Cheng Chung-kei), bankrupted from a stock crash, runs away with the money.  In the series' fifth film, creators Brian Tse and Alice Mak pay tribute to music educators everywhere with this heartwarming story of an unlikely musical miracle.  In addition to being a love letter to music, McDull-The Pork of Music is also a bittersweet humorous exploration of social problems in contemporary Hong Kong, including property hegemony and stock speculation.
