Ten Years

十年
Comprising five short films by emerging Hong Kong filmmakers, Ten Years imagines a near-future city shaped by authoritarian control, cultural erasure and everyday fear. Set in a speculative 2025, the film depicts ordinary citizens navigating censorship, surveillance and repression. Blending dystopian fiction with social realism, Ten Years operates as both political allegory and urgent warning - capturing collective anxiety at a moment when the future feels disturbingly close.
