The Hong Kong On Screen Film Festival (HKOSFF) enters its third year, and once again, our team of volunteers is asking the same question:  This year, what more can we do?

In 2025, the world is steeped in turmoil.  Some look up and see missiles streaking across the sky.  Some, lost and unsure of the road ahead, choose to retreat and disengage.  Yet others, even in the face of hardship, continue to move forward with hope.

In the world of cinema, amid sweeping global changes and shifting viewing habits, Hong Kong film is enduring an unprecedented winter.  But no matter how fierce the storm, Hong Kong’s filmmakers remain steadfast, doing all they can to keep the flame of this cultural legacy alive.

We often see others appearing unscathed under the sun, striving with all their might.  Yet the vulnerability and emotions of those turned away from the light rarely enter the public eye.  This year, the HKOSFF  takes the theme “A Tale of Shadows,” hoping to share with you—through the unique lens of film—a world that may not be radiant, but is deeply human and filled with warmth.

Thank you for your continued support of Hong Kong On Screen.  See you at the cinema this August!

「銀幕•香港」電影節今年做到第三屆，一眾義工都在問同一個問題：今年，我們還能做什麼？ 

2025年，世界動盪不安。有人抬頭便見飛彈劃破天際；有人茫茫不知前路何在，選擇躺平；也有人在困局中仍懷抱希望，努力前行。 

而在電影世界裡，面對環境劇變與觀影習慣的轉變，香港電影正經歷一場前所未有過的寒冬。然而風雨再大，香港電影工作者依然堅守崗位，努力延續這份文化的火焰。 

我們總看到別人在陽光下展現的「拼命無恙」，而很多背向陽光的脆弱和心情郤走不進大眾的視野。今年，「銀幕•香港」電影節以「陰影的故事」為主題，冀望透過電影的獨特視角，邀你一同看見這個也許不燦爛，卻無比真實而有溫度的世界。 

感謝你一直以來對「銀幕•香港」的支持。我們8月戲院見！
