Unruly comparison
Situated at the intersection of queer theory, Sinophone Studies, and Hong Kong (Cultural) Studies, Unruly Comparison: Queerness, Hong Kong, and the Sinophone explores alternative ways of seeing Hon...
Distance and proximity
We are all spectators of the times to varying extents. With the commencement of the twenty-first century, our spectator experience began to transform, becoming more scattered, divergent, and unsettled in response to technological advancement and the decline of consensus around social values, cultural meanings, and political agendas in the face of changes. In post-handover Hong Kong, a breach of meaning has been cumulatively caused by divided opin…
Community Building Through Screen Sharing
Community screenings in this study are understood as the exhibition of moving images outside conventional theatres and commercial circuits. Based on fieldwork observations and interviews conducted between January 2019 and January 2020 with film workers, community groups, and venue providers who knitted together a rhizomatic community screening network in Hong Kong, this paper explores the (self-)making of urban cultural space by way of the reinve…

The making of the citizen-spectator in postmillennial Hong Kong
Established by several independent filmmakers in Hong Kong in 1997, Ying E Chi (YEC) has facilitated the production and the distribution of Hong Kong independent films by means of VCD/DVD releases, video streaming, film festivals and community screenings. The non-profit body has played a key role in aiding local independent filmmakers’ projects, seeking film distribution opportunities locally and transnationally and building community networks in…
Imagining the future in post-millennial Hong Kong cinema
Decolonization in the context of Hong Kong involves a ‘complex series of cultural-political struggles to re-imagine the future for the next 30 years and beyond,’ according to Chan’s “Delay No More: Struggles to Re-Imagine Hong Kong” (2015). In this regard, the bottom-up decolonization to be achieved by the local subjects and the projection of the future extended from cultural imaginaries are reciprocally connected. Building on this, the current s…
Sports as a lens
Through the lens of sport, this article explores the trajectories of local and national belonging in various forms and degrees, which, in turn, bespeak the evolving Hong Kong–China relationship in the larger socio-political context of post-handover Hong Kong. With an eye to cross-border sports competitions (e.g., the Hong Kong-China football rivalry), sport-related events (e.g. gala performance and sports demonstrations by Chinese Olympic gold me…
The Travelling of Ten Years
The omnibus production Ten Years is indubitably one of the most controversial films produced locally in post-millennial Hong Kong. Collaborated by five directors, the film portrays Hong Kong in ten years' time through different imaginary scenarios in respect of political order, the demolition of familiar neighbourhoods, the marginalization of Cantonese language and culture, the authority's violent suppression of dissent, and the strict implementa…
