FOREWORD
序言

Dear friends,

It is my great pleasure to welcome all of you on behalf of the EU and the EU Member States represented in Hong Kong to the 8th edition of the European Film Festival (EUFF). Every year, the European Union Office to Hong Kong and Macao together with the EU Member States and Switzerland organise this cultural event for the pleasure of Hong Kong’s film lovers. Our selection of 16 films will give you the chance to discover European cinema through the lenses of acclaimed filmmakers. The films we bring to you have never been screened before in Hong Kong.

The EUFF is made possible thanks to the contribution of the Consulates-General of the EU Member States, Consulate General of Switzerland and our long-time partner, Broadway Cinematheque. This year, we also want to thank The Hong Kong Polytechnic University for co-organising with us. Thanks to all of them, we are able to bring a great display of Europe’s cinematic art to the silver screens of Hong Kong.

Enjoy the show!

Carmen Cano
Head of Office
European Union Office to Hong Kong and Macao

大家好!

本人謹代歐洲聯盟各個在港設有領事館的成員國,歡迎各位參與第八屆歐洲電影節。歐洲聯盟駐香港及澳門辦事處一直與各歐盟成員國及瑞士攜手合作,為本港電影愛好者籌備這一個文化盛事。今年,我們專誠為你精挑細選了16部從沒有在香港上映過,同時代表不同成員國及瑞士的電影,希望你能從中認識新一代的歐洲電影人。

電影節能順利舉行,香港大眾能在大銀幕上欣賞到近年出色的歐洲電影,實有賴各成員國和瑞士總領事,以及長期合作夥伴百老匯電影中心。今年,我亦希望藉此感謝協辦的香港理工大學。

願你能享受其中!
