Focusing on films produced in the second decade of the 21st century, Cheung probes the meanings of the very concept of independence, teasing out the complexities of Hong Kong and its cinema in key years following the citys return to China. Capturing the richness of Hong Kongs cinema and the courage and tenacity of its filmmakers, Hong Kongs New Indie Cinema deserves a wide audience. Mette Hjort, Professor of Film and Screen Studies, Head of the Lincoln School of Film, Media and Journalism, University of Lincoln, UK This volume provides readers with detailed information and analysis on Hong Kongs independent film movement in the 2010s, a turbulent period in Hong Kongs recent history when its filmmakers met with many problems as well as opportunities. Cheungs careful study draws together facts, context and theories to provide credible support for optimism about Hong Kongs independent film movement going forward. Stephen Teo Kian Teck, Professor, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore This book explores 2010s Hong Kong film industry, focusing on its (presumably) independent sector. Although frequently mentioned in global film industry studies, the term independent film does not always carry a clear meaning. Starting with this point, this book studies closely Hong Kongs new indie cinema of the 2010s from political, economic, social, cultural, and film industrial perspectives, arguing that this indie cinema was vital to the long-term sustainability of the citys film industry. Ruby Cheung is Associate Professor in Film Studies at the University of Southampton, UK, where she leads international film industry studies at undergraduate, postgraduate (taught) and PhD levels. Ruby is an internationally recognized specialist in the study of contemporary Hong Kong cinema, Chinese-language film industries, as well as film festivals. She is the author of New Hong Kong Cinema: Transitions to Becoming Chinese in 21st-century East Asia (2016), and the main editor/co-editor of six other books. 001470029 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on July 11, 2023). 001470029 650_0 $$aMotion pictures$$zChina$$zHong Kong$$xHistory$$y21st century. 001470029 650_0 $$aIndependent films$$zChina$$zHong Kong$$xHistory$$y21st century. 001470029 650_0 $$aMotion picture industry$$zChina$$zHong Kong$$xHistory$$y21st century. 001470029 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001470029 77608 $$iebook version :$$z9783031257674 001470029 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3031257669$$z9783031257667$$w(OCoLC)1360285764 001470029 830_0 $$aEast Asian popular culture (New York, N.Y.) 001470029 852__ $$bebk 001470029 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-031-25767-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001470029 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1470029$$pGLOBAL_SET 001470029 980__ $$aBIB 001470029 980__ $$aEBOOK 001470029 982__ $$aEbook 001470029 983__ $$aOnline 001470029 994__ $$a92$$bISE
