1980s - Modern Social Satire Comedy & Black Comedy

In the 80s, both Hong Kong and Taiwan have successfully completed economic transformation from agricultural economies to commercial and industrial.

Sensitive to changes in society and free from the bondage of established codes, the social satire comedies never failed to reflected these changes.

The Showcase features the best comedians in the 80s & 90s, from Hui's Brother's work Private Eyes and Tony Leung's He Ain't Heavy, He is My Father, to Chow Yun-Fat's Spiritual Love.
