Miff Announces Record Slate of Premiere Fund Films for 2019 Festival
1 / 2 MIFF ANNOUNCES RECORD SLATE OF PREMIERE FUND FILMS FOR 2019 FESTIVAL Media Release Tuesday 18 June — Media Contact Luke McKinnon E [email protected] M (+61) 408 640 329 Tiki Menegola E [email protected] M (+61) 467 227 822 MIFF 2019 Media Centre The MIFF Premiere Fund delivers seven world and Australian premieres to the 68th Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF), including Paul Ireland’s gritty reimagining of Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure staring Hugo Weaving and Maziar Lahooti’s highly anticipated directorial debut, Below. The Premiere Fund, which provides minority co-financing to new Australian quality theatrical (narrative and documentary) feature films that then premiere at MIFF, has invested in more than 70 projects including the MIFF 2019 slate. Four of this year’s suite of Premiere Fund films have also been directed by alumni of the MIFF Accelerator Lab for emerging screen directors, including: John Sheedy, Jayden Stevens, Rodd Rathjen and Maziar Lahooti. Reimagining the Bard’s play about morality, mercy and justice into a topical tale of love and loyalty, Ireland and his co- writer, the late Damian Hill (West of Sunshine, MIFF 2018), have crafted a touching story about a young Muslim woman, Jaiwara, who falls for a non-Muslim musician, Claudio. Ireland’s film takes audiences on an emotional, action-packed ride, with a beautifully-shot Melbourne as the backdrop. As Jaiwara, Megan Hajjar is luminous. Harrison Gilbertson (My Mistress, MIFF Premiere Fund 2014), Fayssal Bazzi (The Merger, MIFF 2018) and Daniel Henshall (Acute Misfortune, MIFF Premiere Fund 2018) join Hugo Weaving in a diverse ensemble that also includes Doris Younane and Mark Leonard Winter in fervently penetrating performance as Angelo. -

Ti (Stephen Chow) is a poor father who works all day, everyday at a construction site to make sure his son Dicky Chow (Xu Jian) can attend an elite private school. Despite his father’s good intentions to give his son the opportunities he never had, Dicky, with his dirty and tattered clothes and none of the “cool” toys stands out from his schoolmates like a sore thumb. Ti can’t afford to buy Dicky any expensive toys and goes to the best place he knows to get new stuff for Dicky – the junk yard! While out “shopping” for a new toy for his son, Ti finds a mysterious orb and brings it home for Dicky to play with. To his surprise and disbelief, the orb reveals itself to Dicky as a bizarre “pet” with extraordinary powers. Armed with his “CJ7” Dicky seizes this chance to overcome his poor background and shabby clothes and impress his fellow schoolmates for the first time in his life. -

Hong Kong Filmmakers Search: Sammo Hung
Sammo HUNG 洪金寶(b. 1952.1.7) Director, Actor, Martial Arts Choreographer, Executive Producer A native of Ningbo, Zhejiang, Hung was born in Hong Kong. His grandfather, Hung Chung-ho was a director in the 1930s and 40s. Hung enrolled in Yu Zhanyuan’s Hong Kong-China Opera Institute to study Peking opera before he was ten. He was the captain of the school’s performing troupe ‘Seven Little Fortunes’. Under the screen name Chu Yuen-lung, Hung appeared in Education of Love (1961) and The Seven Little Valiant Fighters (1962). He began working as a stuntman in the late 1960s, and served as the martial arts choreographer for Shaw Brothers (Hong Kong) Ltd’s The Golden Sword (1969). After Golden Harvest (HK) Limited was established, Hung took part in Lo Wei, Huang Feng and Chung Chang-hwa’s features as both a martial arts choreographer and actor. He was also the martial arts choreographer of King Hu’s The Valiant Ones (1975). In 1977, he made his directorial debut The Iron-Fisted Monk for Golden Harvest. Its box-office catapulted Hung to stardom. In addition to his comedic genius, he won over audiences with his remarkable, fluid action despite his bulk size. The box-office success was followed by a series of action comedies, including Warriors Two (1978), Knockabout (1979) and The Prodigal Son (1981), all directed and played by Hung himself. In 1978, Hung set up Gar Bo Films with Karl Maka and Lau Kar-wing and produced features such as Dirty Tiger, Crazy Frog! (1978). In 1979, he founded Bo Ho Films Company Limited, a satellite company of Golden Harvest. -
Sammo Hung the 43Rd Hong Kong International Film Festival
The 43rd Hong Kong International Film Festival Filmmaker in Focus: Sammo Hung The 43rd Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF) will be held from 18 March to 1 April 2019. Details of the programme lineup will be announced shortly. Legendary action master Sammo Hung is the Filmmaker in Focus this year. This is a well-deserved recognition for the all-round virtuoso who stands as a living testimony of Hong Kong cinema’s Golden Age and for his trailblazing career, having worked his way from actor, stuntman, martial arts choreographer, to director and producer for over half a century. The retrospective honouring Hung will feature 10 of his seminal works, along with a newly published commemorative book. Hung will also attend a Face to Face seminar at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre on 30 March 2019, to share his views of and experiences in the film industry with members of the public. Born in Hong Kong in 1952 to a showbiz family, Hung received specialized training in Peking Opera in his childhood at the China Drama Academy under Master Yu Jim-yuen. He later became the lead member of Yu’s performing troupe, known as “Seven Little Fortunes”. His screen career started in 1961 as a child actor in “Education of Love”. Shaw Brothers’ “The Golden Sword” (1969) saw his rise to the position of martial arts choreographer which he later combined with an acting role in renowned director King Hu’s “The Valiant Ones” (1975). His mastery won him his first Hong Kong Film Award for Best Action Choreography for kung-fu comedy “The Prodigal Son (1981)”. -
