SUMMARY:Anita (NC) - East Asia Film Festival Ireland
DESCRIPTION:136 mins   Hong Kong 2021   Subtitles   Dir: Lok Man Leung\n\nStarring: Louise Wong\, Louis Koo and Fish Liew\n\n \n\nLongman Leung's bio-pic follows legendary Hong Kong pop and movie diva Anita Mui from her child performer days to her death from cervical cancer in 2003\, aged only 40. Like Anita herself\, the film is brash and bold\, but also surprisingly subtle and moving. Newcomer Louise Wong excels as the woman sometimes said to be Hong Kong's Madonna\, but it is the moments of documentary footage that hit home emotionally. In production for several years\, Anita went straight to the top of the Hong Kong box office on its release at the end of 2021. It was also a surprise hit in the Mainland. Focusing on her charitable works as well as her entertainment career\, the film emphasises that Anita is Hong Kong\, and that Anita died too young. (Chris Berry)\n\n \n\n"A simultaneously uplifting and mournful portrait of a true Hong Kong icon" South China Morning Post\n\n\n\nEAST ASIA FILM FESTIVAL IRELAND\n\nTriskel Arts Centre is delighted to be presenting some screenings as part of the East Asia Film Festival Ireland (EAFFI). This festival\, now in its sixth year\, is bringing innovative and inspiring East Asian cinema to Dublin\, Galway\, Cork and Limerick.
