Live Gespräch mit der Regisseurin Liu To

Da wir in Kontakt mit der in Hong Kong lebenden Regisseurin Liu To sind, hat sie sich bereit erklärt, trotz der 7 Stunden Zeitunterschied, mit uns über die Dokumentation und die so virulente Situation von Hong Kong und den Menschen dort zu sprechen. Jedenfalls wenn das Internet am Donnerstag noch offen ist. Liu To ist sehr involviert bei den momentanen Demonstrationen für ein demokratisches Hong Kong.

The Documentation -Like an abortion for the very first time-

The Umbrella Movement was a wave of street protests that took place in Hong Kong from September to December 2014 as a reaction to oppressive practices of the Chinese government against the citizens of Hong Kong dissatisfied with planned changes in the electoral system. In her feature film debut, To Liu captured the citizens of the western part of Kowloon, Mong Kok, whose protests might not have been as visible as those of the leading activists, but were no less important. The documentary rhythmized by opening entries and darkening of the scene, much like the director’s first film, follows two characters, a master and an apprentice.
