- Ann Hui’s big award at Busan.
- Her journey as a woman in film.
- Who helped her along the way.
- What’s new with Hong Kong movies.
You won’t believe what Ann Hui just shared! She’s a total icon. At the Busan International Film Festival, she snagged the awesome Camellia Award. So cool!
We heard her talk at a press conference. She was so open about being a woman filmmaker. In an industry that’s mostly guys, she made it happen. What a queen!
And get this. When asked how other women shaped her? She had stories. So many women lifted her up. It’s truly inspiring, don’t you think?
She also gave us her thoughts on Hong Kong cinema. How it’s changed. The new generation is bringing a fresh, vibrant vibe to the screen. It’s a whole new aesthetic unfolding, with different colors and stories. We are so here for it!
It’s not just about the old guard anymore. New talent is coming up. They’re telling their own stories. And Ann Hui is watching, learning, and cheering them on. That’s true leadership.
Our Take
We think Ann Hui is such a treasure. Hearing her talk about women helping women? Yes! More of that, please. Her vision for Hong Kong films, seeing new generations bloom, just makes us feel hopeful. What a legend. She truly gets it.
