which all filmmakers are eager to attend. Meeting filmmakers from other parts
of the world and watching selected films from those masters are
heart-gladdening. As not going in commercial purpose, I can feel the local
passion for film and arts. NAE gave me this chance to attend this international
event, and allows my film to be viewed by worldwide audience. This is such a
large help to Hong Kong young filmmakers.”
