1. Memories to Choke On, Drinks to Wash Them Down 夜香・鴛鴦・深水埗
This anthology of four stories – the first three fictional and the last a documentary – work together to show the nuances, contradictions, and complexities of being a modern Hongkonger. A domestic helper guides an old lady with dementia out into town; two brother rediscover toys and subsequently fragments of their childhood; a pair of teachers – one local and one foreign – go around trying out Hong Kong’s culinary delights; and a young woman works on her campaign to represent Sham Shui Po at the district council elections.
