Adam Wong And Nick Cheung Bookend Hong Kong Asian Film Festival 2015

Ten years into her marriage with Shing-Wah (Jan Lamb), Fung-Chi (Miriam Yeung) finds herself unhappy with her humdrum life both at work and at home. One day, a song she hears on her old friend's blog brings on a wave of nostalgia as she recalls her school days with her two best friends, back when the limits of reality lived in the distant future and their dreams soared as high as imagination could take them. Inspired by Alan Tam's iconic pop ballad "The Root of Love", director Adam Wong's highly anticipated follow-up to sleeper hit The Way We Dance is a poignant, heartfelt drama about treasuring the present by keeping the lessons of the past alive.

After making his directing debut last year with Hungry Ghost Ritual, Nick Cheung continues to hold down the fort for Hong Kong horror with his second directorial effort. The award-winning actor- director stars as street-smart exorcist Wong who has a unique method of dealing with vengeful spirits: He negotiates with them and persuades them to let go of their grudges. After recordings of his exorcisms go viral, Wong attracts the attentions of a murderous spirit who's targeting mediums, as well as a troublesome reporter who takes great interest in Wong and his close relationship with a female spirit. Cheung, who cites YouTube videos as an inspiration for the film, blends horror, detective and gangster genre elements into a distinct supernatural suspense thriller.
