Remarks shared after Festival
|
"It is a very good that filmmakers can participate in different film festivals, so that they can keep their mind open and update on filmmaking knowledge through communicating with overseas directors and audience. And I hope that it can be a longer-term support not just run one year, as artists need long-term support in developing their skills."
— Shared by Tsang Tsui-shan, director ofThe Life
and Times of Ho Chung Village, after attending the Asian Film
Festival Berlin 2011 in Germany, under the sponsorship of NAE.
