Tokyo ETO promotes Hong Kong cinema in Osaka (with photos)
**********************************************************
Speaking before the screening, the Principal Hong Kong Economic and Trade Representative (Tokyo), Miss Winsome Au, said that Tokyo ETO has been supporting the OAFF since 2011 and welcomed the opportunity to once again support the "Hong Kong Gala Screening" together with film talents from Hong Kong.
She underscored that as an East-meets-West centre for international cultural exchanges, Hong Kong has long been recognised as a hub of creativity and pop culture. Hong Kong films have touched global audiences with their distinctive blend of action, drama, and cultural richness. She added that cinema is more than entertainment; it is a powerful bridge that connects cultures and fosters mutual understanding.
Miss Au also encouraged the audience to visit Hong Kong to experience first-hand its vibrant culture and the exciting line up of mega events in arts and culture, sports, and entertainment.
Following the gala screening, the directors of "Behind the Shadows", Jonathan Li and Chou Man-yu, joined a sharing session with the audience.
