An Interview with Ann Hui Visible Secrets: Hong Kong's Women
An Interview with Ann Hui Visible Secrets: Hong Kong’s Women Filmmakers Your 21st century films are quite eclectic. What has driven your choice of projects in recent times? I shot Visible Secrets after two years' teaching and I thought, first, I'd better do a film that was marketable. My first film is also a thriller and I thought it was fun to revisit old grounds. Then followed a film which I was really interested in making (July Rhapsody ), I thought I would never be able to raise funds for it but surprisingly it was accepted by the investor, so I made it. And so forth and so on... alternately, making films I really want to make and some I could just make so as to survive in the industry. Could you talk a little about The Way We Are and Night and Fog? These films seem quite different stylistically; one very much informed by social realism and the other more melodramatic, yet each seems perfect for its subject matter. What made you select these different approaches to the setting of Tin Shui Wai? The Way We Are was initially planned as a D.V. affair since I couldn’t find the money for Night and Fog . It's also initially not about Tin Shui Wai but I decided to transport the whole setting to Tin Shui Wai. The script was already written 7 or 8 years ago about another housing estate but since I knew Tin Shui Wai well, and the lifestyle of all these housing areas are about the same, I thought it would be okay to transpose the whole story to the newest housing estate. -

In recent years, there has been much research and theory on western film music, especially the Hollywood film industry, by musicologists and scholars in film studies, popular music studies, and other fields. However, there has been little research on Hong Kong Film music, the system of which is different from that of western film music, and therefore I will apply basic film music concepts, but using the real situation of Hong Kong film music to formulate my own argument. The methodology used in this thesis will include the application of basic concepts used by scholars of film music, such as the functions of music in film, combined with fieldwork and analysis of films. -

Abstract The issue that this study addressed was the unprivileged status of women audience members and women directors in the male dominated Chinese film industry. To investigate this problem, the purpose of this study was to explore how Chinese women audience members produce different meanings in terms of gender identity and gender relations through viewing The Golden Era (2014), directed by a female filmmaker Ann Hui. To deeply understand the viewing experiences of Chinese women audience members, this qualitative research project was designed as a reception analysis. To gather data, interviews with 18 Chinese women with viewing experiences of this film were collected from December 2014 to January 2015. The transcribed interviews were translated and analyzed. Under the framework of feminist cultural studies, the portrayal of gender roles and gender relations in this film incited various reactions and reading practices of Chinese audience members throughout these data. -
TAO JIE Ein Einfaches Leben
fugu Filmverleih und Koch Media präsentieren einen ANN HUI Film TAO JIE Ein einfaches Leben www.fugu-films.de [email protected] Inhalt Diese Geschichte beruht auf wahren Ereignissen. CHUNG Chun Tao, oder Ah Tao, wurde in Taishan, China geboren und als Baby in eine andere Familie gegeben. Ihr Adoptivvater starb während der japanischen Besatzung, und ihre Adoptivmutter schickte sie als Dienstmädchen zur Leung- Familie. Dort arbeitete sie 60 Jahre lang, und zog dabei drei Generationen Kinder groß. Die meisten Familienmitglieder sind mittlerweile emigriert, nur für den Filmprodu-zenten Roger, einen unverheirateten Mitt-Vierziger, sorgt sie noch. Seit sie ein Teenager war, arbeitete sie als Amah - als Dienerin – bei den Leungs. Ah Tao war Zeugin vom ganzen Leben mit allen Geheimnissen der Familie. Jetzt ist Roger der einzige vom Clan, der in Hongkong geblieben ist. Als Roger eines Tages nach Hause kommt, muss er feststellen, dass Ah Tao einen Schlaganfall hatte, und bringt sie sofort in ein Krankenhaus. Ah Tao beschließt dort, ihren Job zu quittieren und ins Altersheim umzusiedeln. Roger sieht sich nach geeigneten Heimen um und trifft auf einen alten Freund, der seit neustem im Altenheimgeschäft tätig ist, und ihm ein Angebot macht. Ah Tao zieht dorthin und muss sich mit ihrer neuen Umgebung und neuen Nachbarn vertraut machen: die etwas harsche, aber im Grunde freundliche Betreuerin Frau Choi und die Bewohner, eine zusammengewürfelte Gruppe älterer Menschen, darunter der adrette Uncle Kin, die eifersüchtige Tante Kam, der gebildete und gutherzige Dialysepatient Mui Gu. Roger verbringt immer mehr Zeit mit Tao Jie (=Fräulein Tao) und merkt, dass sie ihm mehr bedeutet, als er dachte. -

In the same year, 77 films were produced in Hong Kong, contributing box office receipts of US $47 million, compared to a total of US $101 million when foreign films were included. In the export sector, audio-visual production and related services ac- counted for US $53 million, and contributed annually a share of 0.1%-0.2% to services exports in recent years. Hong Kong films or their related agents have often been invited to exhibit at Film Festivals abroad, and have won several prestigious awards including those from the Oscars in Los Angeles and film festivals in Berlin and Cannes3). Before examining the Hong Kong film industry in-depth a theoretical context is provided. I Theoretical Context Allen Scott, a geographer, analyzes the film industry in Los Angeles according to the division of labor. In particular, he highlights the proximity of skilled and socialized cultural workers in the image-production system and milieu to attain cultural agglomeration or synergy4) Scottthen extends his field of interest to Paris and the French cinema5) He also underlines that film produc- tion forms an integral part of the United States cultural-products industry, and the cultural inno- vative and creative aspects of film culture in representing and making propaganda of US capital- ist culture to the rest of the world6).
