The crew members of more than 70 films — most of them upcoming or still in production — walked the red carpet, sharing their passion for cinema or insights into filmmaking accumulated over the years.
Iconic Hong Kong director Peter Chan disclosed that he is working on his latest project, She's Got No Name, a story that captivated him eight years ago.
Chan said his impetus for the tale, which is based on a 1945 case of a woman who murdered her husband due to domestic violence, was to step out of his comfort zone and explore a new domain. He suggested that filmmakers should maintain a questioning attitude and relate to their projects while creating new films.
