Black Bauhinia 香港本色 is a documentary to explore Hong Kong’s localist movement and the push for independence—an upheaval that reshaped the city’s political landscape both at home and abroad. Through a collaborative filmmaking approach, Black Bauhinia captures candid, personal reflections on the price of resistance, the sacrifices it demands, and the evolving meaning of “home.”
