Wong Ping: Digital Fables

Expired April 19, 2021 4:59 AM
Already unlocked? for access

Cantonese with English subtitles.


In these six films, Wong Ping holds an acid-hued mirror to contemporary life in his native Hong Kong and delves into the collective psyche of our digital age. His assorted characters—including a player who cares for the offspring of a hookup gone awry; a sex worker who entertains a corrupt cop; and a tree with an insect phobia—face trials and tribulations ranging from the erotic to the existential.
