Next month, HKFP – in conjunction with Amnesty International and Reporters Without Borders – will hold a series of events relating to free expression in Hong Kong since the 2014 Umbrella Movement.

You are invited to join us for a free, political art exhibition, a forum on free speech and two special film screenings.

Portraits of political leaders, exhibits of torture equipment and iconic Hong Kong neon are blended together to reconstruct metaphors anew. ‘Gongle’ paints a suffocating reality as Badiucao’s biting cartoons find a physical form at his debut exhibition. It is through this hyperbole and piercing satire where purposeful misrepresentation can find new forms of expression.
- Dates: Opening party: Sat. Nov. 3rd, 7:30pm-10pm. Until Nov. 13th
- Venue: The Hive Spring, 3/F Remex Centre, 42 Wong Chuk Hang Rd, Aberdeen, Hong Kong Island. Directions.
- Entry: Free. RSVP online.

Free special screening of A Day in Transition, a crowd-sourced film project on Hong Kong.

Starting with video submissions from the public on the theme “Transition”, filmmakers Steven Dhoedt, Seeahole (Dave Kong, Kenji Ma, Eason Yuen), and Stanley Tam, weave iconic poetry, graphics & music by local indie artists into three unique moving-image works.
