The Asian Digital Competition is rather appealing. Betelnut is again on the selection (New Current Award at PIFF, at Festival 3 Continents, selected at Vancouver and Rotterdam too...), same goes for Love Conquers All (Awarded at PIFF and Rotterdam and selected at several international film festival too).
I had the chance to see Mid-Afternoon Barks, which is a very interesting, different and a good quality piece of work. Also there is a new film by James Lee who previously directed A Beautiful Washing Machine (very good).
I must admit that the HK panorama looks rather pale compare to the other sections.
Dog bite Dog (Cheang Poo-soi), Exiled (Johnnie To), After this Our Exile (Patrick Tam) are from what I've seen the only good ones.
Wo Hu (Marco Mak)Confession of Pain (Andrew Lau, Alan Mak) are really not worth....
I still haven't seen Protégé (Derek Yee) and The Postmodern Life of my Aunt (Ann Hui).
