Synopsis
Flowing Stories is a documentary about changes, migration of Hong Kong people and the unknowability of the future. The film tracks Ho Chung Village’s myriad changes over the years through the Lau’s family, the director’s neighbors. A few decades ago, many of the Ho Chung villagers migrated to Europe to earn a living in the restaurant trade. As the young men and women matured, they married and formed families, yet their attachment to Ho Chung remain unchanged. Held once every decade, Ho Chung’s Village Festival is a traditional ceremony that is passed down from generation to generation, and provides an opportunity for families to get together and for far-flung sons and daughters to return to their home village.
