Never Stop Creating: Screening and Talk by Tom Lin

18/3 (Sun) | 2pm | Hong Kong Arts Centre Cinema | Programme duration approx. 90min | HK$ 65/35* | Conducted in Mandarin | Moderator: Joyce Yang

Tom Lin, one of the Asian New Force Category juror of this year's ifva Awards, is one of the leading forces of the new generation of Taiwan cinema and best known for Zinnia Flower, Starry Starry Night and Winds of September. His creative path seems smooth but the truth is there are so many more rejected projects than the realised ones. He derives, from the twists and turns in life, the power of gentleness and kindness in his creations. Besides screening his two short films The Olfactory System and The Pain of Others, he will also talk about how the creative process remains the best cure to problems in life.
