My Prince Edward (Coming to North America in physical and virtual cinemas in 2020)

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Norris Wong Yee-Lam

Starring: Stephy Tang, Chu Pak Hong, Nina Paw Hee-Ching

Synopsis:


"(August 12th, 2020, New York, NY) New York-based distributor Cheng Cheng releases a new trailer of My Prince Edward, the directorial debut from Hong Kong’s acclaimed scriptwriter Norris Wong (The Gutter, Margaret & David: Green Bean). Since premiering at last year’s Taiwan Golden Horse Film Festival, the “Chinese Oscars”, the dramedy about a newly engaged Hong Kong woman trying to nullify her secret sham marriage with a mainlander has been bagging awards from the most reputed Chinese film festivals. Norris Wong is one of the just-announced recipients of the Hong Kong Film Revival Plan Development Fund. Mabel Cheung and Alex Law (Duo behind An Autumn's Tale) will execute produce her second directorial feature. My Prince Edward is opening at cinemas and festivals via physical and virtual formats starting on September 4th. The film will also arrive at VOD and DVD on December 15th.

The distributor states: “Before My Prince Edward, Norris Wong had won wide admiration for her writing in some of most groundbreaking Cantonese TV series recent years. Challenging macroscale gender and social economic pressures her worldwide peers face with this directorial debut, she poured real individual experience into a microscale story set in her neighborhood in her home city. Her humane and multidimensional filmmaking soothes the disorientation and anger we consume from sensational headlines on related issues. It’s a notable cinematic contribution from a Hong Kong’s homegrown woman to the city’s global discourse. Witnessing legendary veterans William Chang (The Grandmaster, In the Mood for Love), Paw Hee-ching (The Way We Are) and multi-talented star Stephy Tang (The Empty Hands) collectively lifting the gem also renews our faith in the close-knit industry as lovers of Hong Kong cinema.”

New York-based Cheng Cheng founded in 2015 specializes in distributing award-winning Chinese language films in North America. The company’s previous releases include Teng Congcong’s acclaimed debut Send Me to the Clouds, Taiwan’s Oscars entry The Great Buddha+ by Huang Hsin-Yao and Yang Chao’s Berlinale Silver Bear winner Crosscurrent.

JUMP BACK TO TOP



Director: Paul Ireland

Starring: Hugo Weaving, Daniel Henshall, Harrison Gilbertson, Mark Leonard Winter, Doris Younane

Synopsis:


"An unlikely love ignites between a modern Muslim girl and a local musician amongst the background of racial tension, amphetamines and gang culture in the city's notorious housing estate.

Inspired by SHAKESPEARE's play Measure for Measure and influenced by the gritty realism of films like Amores Perros, the social conscience of Fishtank and dynamic aesthetic of Un Prophete, Measure for Measure questions the notion of justice, the ability for redemption and the desire for power and examines the idea that 'we can never escape our true nature or where we are from despite our attempts'.

MEASURE FOR MEASURE is also a raw study of the most basic and yet most complex of our emotions -- love... how we react when we find it, and how far we would go to keep it. "
