About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Our main partner, the Sai Kung District Community Centre, is dedicated to supporting rural living and building a strong community network. Guided by the mission to connect the community, care for villagers, and protect nature, we strive to bridge urban-rural disparities, preserve Sai Kung's unique way of life, and create a harmonious and livable society for all. We are thrilled to collaborate with Jessey Tsang Tsui-Shan, an acclaimed Hong Kong director, writer, and documentary filmmaker, whose works have earned multiple awards at international film festivals. As both the director of “Winter Chants“ and a villager of Ho Chung Village, Jessey brings a unique perspective to capturing the village's untold stories, making this an unforgettable storytelling experience
