Merry X'mas

2007 · 24 min · Drama

The custom of exchanging gifts at Christmas is no easy ritual for a little girl who resorts to collecting rubbish in order to raise enough money for the occasion. This film offers no earth-shaking scenes, nor heartstring-pulling sentimentality, but a glimpse of the world through the eyes of the little girl, so that we might feel what she feels about the society and humanity, and have empathy with rather than sympathy for her.

Based on a true incident in 2019 when a notorious pro-Beijing Hong Kong politician openly displayed his camaraderie with the triad goons who attacked peaceful protestors. Wong's sophisticated, compact drama goes beyond agitprop and grapples with complexities and tensions in the movement. The same district election featured here is documented in Memories to Choke On, Drinks to Wash Them Down.
