Festival of Young Cinema in Macau Wraps With International Dialog and Work in Progress Prizes
The first edition of the Festival of Young Cinema in Macau wrapped with prizes for works in progress and significant mainland Chinese interest.
A prize ceremony attended by Hamaguchi Ryusuke(“Drive My Car”), Vinod Vidhu Chopra (“3 Idiots”), Amir Naderi and Yonfan on Thursday wrapped up the final event of the debut edition of the Festival of Young Cinema in Macau. As a consequence, audience numbers at screenings of the completed films available to the public varied greatly, from substantially empty to almost sold out for Yonfan’s “No.7 Cherry Lane” and for a quartet of titles by Japanese celebrity auteur Hamaguchi. Hamaguchi, Lav Diaz, Yonfan, Anurag Kashyap, Tsukamoto Shinya and Naderi commanded substantial attention, with a large proportion of the audience seeming to have crossed the border from mainland China.
