“Sino Philes” is a mockumentary microfilm web series and short film about Hong Kong and Mainland social conflicts. In an attempt to reconnect with their roots, a Chinese Canadian couple relocates to Hong Kong, China, and consequently becomes entangled in bizarre social conflicts between Hongkongers and Mainlanders that ultimately lead them to discover what it means to be "Chinese" and what the "Chinese dream" means to them. http://sinophiles.slatetakes.com/

As part of Slate Takes’ CSR, we directed this documentary about “Free Yum Cha“, a social enterprise that connects under-resourced charitable organizations with members of the public, who get to know each other over dim sum, and build long-lasting friendships through community service.

Tagspotting

Cassandra Chan

Tagspotting is a documentary that examines Hong Kong’s vibrant street art scene. ST/ART (or Street Art) is a collective of artists who seek to legitimize and spread their art throughout Hong Kong. Whether they’re dodging police or ‘bombing’ the streets at 4am, they seek to break the mould of mainstream art and make themselves exist in an ever growing concrete jungle.
