The just ended Art Month had a lot more to offer than visual art. There was something for lovers of performing arts and of cinema too, in the shape of the Hong Kong Arts Festival and the Hong Kong International Film Festival. This year’s film festival, which ended last Thursday, was the 42nd. Apart from many recent international movies, the festival featured themed retrospectives such as one that included 14 films starring Taiwan’s Lin Ching-hsia, otherwise known as Brigitte Lin. Another retrospective featured one of cinema’s most celebrated filmmakers, in both fiction and documentary, Werner Herzog, and included 20 of his classic films, a masterclass, and sessions with the public.

As a teenager, Kevin Ka Ho Tsui studied in England, ultimately graduating from the University of Manchester with a degree in art history. Soon after that he set out on a busking tour. Kevin’s a self-taught musician who learned to play guitar by watching YouTube videos. Since then he’s been writing songs, mainly in English, about daily life in Hong Kong, songs such as “Tai Po”, “Kowloon City”, “Sham Shui Po” and “Let’s Head to Lan Kwai Fong”. He’s here to talk about his upcoming projects.
