Hong Kong Horror Comedy ‘The Vampire of Sheung Shui,’ With Indian Protagonist, Sets HAF Debut


Shreyom Ghosh's HAF project 'The Vampire of Sheung Shui' is a Hong Kong-set horror-comedy with a protagonist of Indian origin.

Buckingham (“Finding Love in Sisters”), the film will follow Lokesh, a slacker in his 30s, living with orthodox Jain parents in a sleepy Hong Kong suburb, waiting to take over the family jewellery store and move to the U.K. after selling it. Ghosh, a graduate of the NYU Tisch School of the Arts, created and directed Hooq comedy-drama series “Bhak” (2019) and made animated short “Vegetable Rising”(2022). “We are looking for international co-production and financier partners on this pilgrimage, [while] our HAF scheduled meetings have shown promise, we expect nothing but vibrant exploration with industry delegates around the globe,” Yam added.
