This is a wide-ranging interview with Augustine Mok Chiu-yu. It focuses on topics including film exhibition in Hong Kong of political films from across the globe and the making of independent and experimental cinema in Hong Kong. This contributes to an assessment of Hong Kong left-wing cinema in the 1970s that transcends and moves beyond the limiting boundaries of the US-Soviet Union Cold War discourse. Mok discusses his own role and history in producing and screening of progressive films in Hong Kong during this period. Augustine Mok Chiu-yu was a founding member of The 70's Biweekly, an independent youth magazine first published on the first day of 1970. He was a social/political activist in The 70's but he became more a cultural activist involved in writings and cultural work in subsequent years. He moved into theatre, performance art and community cultural development work and has performed in the US, UK, Poland, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Kathmandu, Bangla Desh, Myanmar Republic, South Korea etc. He has organized many cross-cultural projects that toured in Asia and Europe. He won the first ever Award for Theatre of the Hong Kong Arts Development Council for the year 1998 and has been a great promoter in arts and disability, community arts and community cultural development in Hong Kong. He helped to found the Hong Kong International Deaf Film Festival and has been its hearing organizer for the 12 editions of the Festival. He was the producer of the 35 mm film entitled An Open Letter to Hong Kong's Literary Youth and the documentary Black Bird - A Living Song. He has acted in Life and Times of Ng Chung Yin (Evans Chan), Ordinary Heroes (Ann Hui), Port Unknown (Mamunur Rashid), and N+N (Mo Lai). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
