Dirs: CHUN Kim Scr: SIMA Man-sum Cast: NG Cho Fan, PAK Yin, CHEUNG Ying, YUNG Siu-yi, WONG Cho-shan Prod Co: Nanguo 1950 | B&W | Cantonese | Chinese Subtitles | 103 min Film Introduction: Directed by CHUN Kim and written by Ta Teh Institute professor SIMA Man-sum, Fishermen's Song of the South Sea is set against the backdrop of a South China fishing village at Cheung Chau. It depicts ordinary people enduring oppression by local fishing bullies backed by a reactionary regime. Because individual strength is feeble, change can only be achieved when the younger generation travels to the city to learn progressive ideas and returns home to organize the masses. |
