The Emperor’s Conquests

In a compilation of seven short films, seven directors explore the history of modern China and its people, going back to the 1940s and the aftermath of World War II, on the eve of the birth of the People’s Republic of China, through to the 1960s, the 1980s, the 1990s, and finally the 2010s, with stars like Song Jia and Ou Hao making appearances.

The first film focuses on an engineer struggling to organize a ceremony to mark the birth of the nation and the second tells the story of a love-sick nuclear scientist. In the third film, a young boy does what he can to help his neighborhood watch the gold medal match of the women’s volleyball competition in the 1984 Olympic Games.

The remaining films focus on more recent events, including two groups of people preparing for the handover of Hong Kong by the British colonial government in 1997. There is another Olympic story in a film about events surrounding the 2008 Olympics, which were held in Beijing, as a taxi driver decides to gift a ticket he had bought for his own son to another boy.

In the sixth film, two homeless boys watch a spectacular space mission in the 2010s. And in the final film, a female air force pilot attempts to ensure that a military parade to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the end of the Second Sino-Japanese War goes off without a hitch

My People, My Country

The Patriots Team

Colleges students Feng (Tsao Yu Ning), Victory (Carlos Chan), and their three friends return to Feng’s former school to pay it one final visit in their summer vacation.

But this is not any old school: It is a former detention camp dating back to World War II, when Imperial Japanese used it as a gruesome torture center and a base for ghastly human experiments on hapless prisoners.

The school has been closed for a decade and is due to be demolished shortly, but there is still time for Feng and friends to unearth no shortage of secrets.

And as they begin their search, they soon come across reports of a ghostly presence, and even more spine-chilling accounts of students’ disappearance.

The school’s former principal and an ex-janitor whose daughter vanished at the school also roam the hallways – as do monstrous phantoms who threaten to end this exploratory journey in the most macabre of ways...

“Binding Souls” is a 2018 Hong Kong horror film that was directed by Chan Pang Chun.

But in a stroke of good fortune, she finds herself paired in class with a remarkable deskmate, the popular and smart Yu Huai (Chen Fei Yu).

Although their friendship gets off to a rocky start – with the two arguing about minor trifles – they eventually form a strong bond and become inseparable.

Together, they begin to form firm friendships with their classmates – including some quirky and unusual characters – as well as some very inspiring teachers.
