'Live out the cinematic Hong Kong'

Tourists can visit Hong Kong to feel the city's unique movie culture as the Tourism Board has launched a new promotion named Live Out the Cinematic Hong Kong featuring classic Hong Kong movies.

The promotion includes an online travel guide and a documentary film named Hong Kong Classics Reimagined, which premiered at the 77th Cannes Film Festival in France last Friday.

The promotion aims to attract movie lovers to the city to pay tribute to Hong Kong's classical movies and value the city's exceptional culture through the perspective of indigenous filmmakers.

The 60-minute documentary brought six reputable filmmakers together featuring genres ranging from romance to comedy.

Actors include Sylvia Chang, Sammo Hung, and Karen Mok, showcasing their unique charm and cultural legacy. "Through Hong Kong Classics Reimagined, we pay tribute to timeless classics in HK's cinematic history and revitalize them with a fresh burst of energy," said board chairman Pang Yiu-kai.
