The \u300aHong Kong Contemporary Film Festival \u300bstrives to challenge dated conceptions of Hong Kong cinema and transform nostalgia into renewed action. Together with local and overseas collaborators, Distill HK [ \u5ddd ] presents the works of independent filmmakers as an intergenerational and transnational dialogue. These moving images become a critical lens on the pressing issues that are part of the global discourse. Through a 3-night festival in New York with Cantonese cuisine and retro-pop music, alongside a live-streamed panel discussion in Hong Kong, we invite both communities to reexamine Hong Kong\u2019s current cultural climate and rediscover its creative voice together.<\/p>\n<p>April 24, 2016 |  7:00- 10:00 pm<\/p>\n<p>Homecoming  \uff0d  Zune Kwok<\/p>\n<p>Reunification  \uff0d  Alvin Tsang<\/p>\n<p>*   Panel Discussion with Alvin Tsang<\/p>\n<p>For tickets visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.distillhk.org\/#!hkcff\/g8jme\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.distillhk.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.distillhk.org\/#!hkcff\/g8jme\"> <\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.distillhk.org\/#!hkcff\/g8jme\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sunday, April 24 07pm and 10pm 87 Lafayette Street, New York, NY 10013<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63463","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63463","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=63463"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63463\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":63465,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63463\/revisions\/63465"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=63463"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=63463"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=63463"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
