Ma Xiang (馬翔，the left), the director of 儒林巷19號（Ru Lin Alley 19）, who studied vocal music in Italy and now a filmmaker in China.

Hu Ping（胡平，the middle）, who made 背篼（Carrier），a dramatic short film telling a story about "two lonely and terrified beats, fighting and cuddling with each others in order to survive."

Sim Seow-khee（沈紹麒，the right）, from Malaysia and studied filmmaking in Taiwan. His film 野獸（Metamophosis）is a B&W and surrealism short film, which is inspired by Tsai Ming-Liang's "The River"(1997).

I met these people in 13th ifva (Independent short film & video awards) hosted by Hong Kong Arts Centre. We were all in Asian New Force category.
