Summary 內容: 甚麼是關係?甚麼是故事?甚麼是惡夢?甚麼是成就?甚麼是悲傷?甚麼是表白?甚麼是戀愛?

What’s a relationship? What’s a story? What’s a nightmare? What’s achievement? What’s sadness? What’s love confession? What’s falling in love?

林奕華導演、7位港大同學、14齣電影、2天的日光、9個問題,創作了7個面對面聊天的錄像作品。

一齣齣「陪我成長」的電影,一趟透過電影與成長的「對談」,會從一定的距離找到意外的交匯?會因為探索甚麼是成長而有所成長?會成為繼續成長的靈感?

Theatre director, Edward Lam, 7 HKU students, 14 movies, 2 days and 9 questions, created 7 video works of face-to-face chat.

Will there be any unexpected intersection between these movies and the exchange? Will there be any growing by exploring the essence of growth? Will it become an inspiration for our coming of age?
