night and fog

In 2004, a shocking "case of a family of four killing their wives" occurred in Tin Shui Wai. A man committed suicide after brutally killing his wife and two daughters. Among them, my mother, surnamed Jin, came from Sichuan. At the end of June of that year, she went to pay homage to the deceased and collected relevant information, hoping to shoot a work about the bride who left Hong Kong. In July 2006, three single mothers committed suicide by burning charcoal in one of their homes, leaving a suicide note saying that there is no love in life; June 5438+October 2007 10, a mother who received comprehensive social security assistance pushed 12-year-old daughter and 9-year-old son from the 24th floor and then jumped to her death. At one time, Tin Shui Wai was described as a "city of sadness".

At the beginning, Xu Anhua wanted to make this series of stories about "Tin Shui Wai" into ten TV series. In the process of looking for investment, he got the help of Jing Wong by accident, and made it into a movie at the suggestion of Jing Wong. It's just that the first season of Tin Shui Wai is no longer a work with the theme of ethical tragedy as imagined before, but a script written by a female student earlier was revised to Days and Nights in Tin Shui Wai. When Days and Nights in Tin Shui Wai won a good reputation, Xu Anhua got a bigger investment (65,438+00 times) to produce Night and Fog in Tin Shui Wai, and invited Yam Tat-wah, Zhang Jingchu and other leading actors.

The film takes the ethical tragedy in Tin Shui Wai as the background, and adds the director Xu Anhua's thoughts on the bride crossing the sea and the aging population in Hong Kong. The government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has published a research report on Hong Kong's population policy. On the one hand, it points out that the population of Hong Kong is rapidly aging; On the other hand, with the increase of new immigrants (mainly mainland immigrants to Hong Kong), the population of Hong Kong is also increasing. Yam Tat-wah's Hong Kong Bo is aimed at the aging population in Hong Kong, while Zhang Jingchu's Hong Kong Sister-in-law is a new immigrant from the mainland.
