Gay or Not? / Innocent
Mar. 27th, 2005 12:40 amMy 2nd day at the Hong Kong International Film Festival. I watched 2 screenings: Hong Kong Indie Shorts and Simon Chung's latest film Innocent.
It was Innocent's world premiere and it was sold out. I like this film but I'm even more impressed with the short film Gay or Not?, a documentary made by highschool students about the homosexual gossip circulating in their class. It's very true and funny. And like most of the audience, I was amazed how open and relaxed the classmates were in front of the camera. Like the directors later said in the Q&A session, only they can achieve that because they were classmates, not outsiders trying to shoot a film.
