Song of the Exile
Drama
Set in the early 1970s, it tells the story of a Chinese-Japanese student who returns to her native Hong Kong after graduating from a university in London. Once she arrives back home, she and her family begins to fight, largely due to cultural and societal conflicts between her mother and herself.
VIBE
A quiet, introspective drama exploring the deep fissures that can form between generations and cultures. It feels like a thoughtful, melancholic rumination on belonging and the complexities of family ties, steeped in the atmosphere of a specific time and place.
