This year marks the 10th anniversary of Fresh Wave; on this special occasion, we compile a special screening “Retrieve Our Land” to showcase the distinguished Fresh Wave short films from the past years.
The selected shorts focus on the conflict between singled-minded development and disappearing local community. There are a benevolent grandfather and an innocent child who plant bamboo in the middle of the city, there are ultraman-wannabes who do all kinds of petty good things in their neighborhood — after all, they want nothing more than a livable Hong Kong.
