  • Chan Cheuk-sze and Kathy Wong discuss the nuances behind the colours used to represent political ideologies in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The article from Hong Kong Free Press discusses the achievements of Hong Kong filmmakers Kiwi Chow and Susan Chan, who won the Best Live Action Short Film at Taiwan's Golden Horse Awards for their film "Say I Do To Me."
