3. Foreword Story of Flowing Remembrance of a Village Documentary of Hong Kong Sai Kung Aborigines

4. Synopsis Flowing Stories is a documentary feature about Ho Chung village located in Hong Kong’s New Territories. Director TSANG Tsui-Shan will interview several different generations of villagers, watching the past melt into the future, as both the village and the world have changed. This documentary is a visual record of Hong Kong’s disappearing village traditions, to reconstruct now-vanished landscapes through photo stills and document contemporary village life through interviews. It is not just a simple historical account of the Ho Chung Village. This documentary also explores the notion of home, to follow the waves of migration taken by the villagers to France and England. People travel and settle all over the world, always with a notion of finding a place called home.
