Jointly presented by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department and Hong Kong Film Arts Association
Jointly organised by the Hong Kong Heritage Museum and Hong Kong Film Arts Association
Films are a major part of Hong Kong's popular culture. The Hong Kong films owe their success to the entire cast and crew's contribution in which the art and costume directors play an indispensable role.
This exhibition aims to document the development of film arts in Hong Kong and showcase the role and importance of art and costume design in film production. Through the display of iconic costumes, props, set designs, drawing manuscripts, paraphernalia, videos and reconstructed scenes of workshops, the exhibition will take visitors into the world behind the scenes for delving into the establishment of the Hong Kong film arts profession, and learning about the nature of the Hong Kong film culture, and the highly adaptable professionalism and creative inclusiveness of film industry workers.
This exhibition is one of the programmes of "Hong Kong Pop Culture Festival 2023".
