A Brave New World reimagines scenes of everyday life with a twist of absurdity, building a slow and deliberate cinematic vignette of the socio-cultural landscape of the artist’s homeland, Hong Kong, in the form of 15 provocative portraits. Interweaving fictional scenarios with real life elements such as unscripted podcasts, family dinner conversations and textbook contents, the film explores the unspoken sentiments of Hong Kong people as the city heads towards a “new era” in the 2020s.
