The Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office in Singapore (Singapore ETO), together with the Singapore Film Society (SFS) and distributor KillerMud Films, held a special screening of the award-winning Hong Kong documentary “Four Trails” on Wednesday night at Golden Village Suntec City, Singapore.

The film and event showcase Hong Kong's vibrancy, sporting spirit, breathtaking landscapes, and captivating cultural stories.

Owin Fung Ho-yin, director of the Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office (HKETO) in Singapore, emphasized the government's commitment to supporting the film industry through funding and talent initiatives while promoting Hong Kong films internationally. 

Collaborating with overseas partners enhances global recognition of Hong Kong’s unique cultural creativity.

Fung also highlighted Hong Kong’s ecotourism potential, thanking the Hong Kong Four Trails Ultra Challenge for spotlighting the city’s geological and ecological features, including parts of the UNESCO Global Geopark. 

He expressed appreciation to the Singapore Film Society and KillerMud Films for their efforts in introducing Hong Kong films to Singaporean audiences.

The screening attracted around 150 attendees, who actively engaged during a post-screening question and answer session moderated by Kenneth Tan, chairman of the Singapore Film Society, with Hong Kong “Four Trails” director Robin Lee. 

Building on this positive reception, Singapore ETO will continue to promote Hong Kong's rich cultural and natural heritage.

Hong Kong Four Trails Ultra Challenge documents the 298-kilometer ultramarathon across Hong Kong’s iconic trails, showcasing the runners’ perseverance alongside the region’s volcanic geology and coastal scenery.
