Our take

Fruit Chan’s rebelliously lo-fi drama explores the many troubles of youth in a rapidly changing Hong Kong. Shot independently on a micro-budget with a non-pro cast, Made in Hong Kong would go on to win the Special Jury prize at Locarno. An atmospheric masterpiece that nods to Wong Kar Wai.
