HOMETOWN HEROES: 
I AM A FILMMAKER

HOMETOWN HEROES: I AM A FILMMAKER is a community-music video project that will showcase the lives of six Eastern and Wan Chai District residents. Young aspiring filmmakers will tell their stories by taking inspiration from the six original songs created last year during HOMETOWN HEROES: I AM A SINGER-SONGWRITER.

A collaboration with <Every Life Is A Song>, the social enterprise – created by Hong Kong singer-songwriter Vicky Fung and lyricist Chow Yiu Fai – will host creative workshops to help young talent develop their narratives.
