Imagining Evan Yang 2014

Evan Yang is best known as the director of several popular films at MP & GI, but his identity as a writer had rarely been discussed until writers Ye Si and Mary Wong republished one of Yang's short story anthologies in 2013. Film critic/scholar Shu Kei sheds a light on Yang's writing career in Imagining Evan Yang, a part of RTHK's documentary series on renowned authors that features enactments of selected scenes in Yang's works. Shu also uses interviews with scholars and Yang's children and collaborators to explore how Yang was able to rebuild his identity as an artist after coming to Hong Kong.
