The Hong Kong International Film Festival Society (Hkiffs) unveils its glittering line-up of Firebird Awards competitions and Fipresci prize jury members. The announcement follows the decision to continue with the competitions despite the earlier cancellation of the 44th Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF44) due to an escalation in Covid-19 cases. Through online judging, five panels of independent juries will select a total of 13 winners from the 42 competition titles.
Hkiffs will announce the results on 20 August.
Leading the jury for the Young Cinema Competition for Chinese Language Films is revered Hong Kong director Stanley Kwan, who has been an iconic figure in local and international cinema for decades. Joining him are fellow director-cum-cinematographer O Sing-pui; and acclaimed independent art and cultural worker May Fung. Together they will identify four winners among the emerging talents in recent Chinese language cinema.
