Food is not just a necessity for survival; it is nourishment for the soul, each dish capturing a tapestry of memories and emotions. This year, the Film Programmes Office has specially invited Ernest Chan to curate the enchanting programme Food for Thought—A Cinematic Feast. Through selected films spanning across different genres and themes, the audience will explore touching stories about food that just concern the culinary arts but are also journeys within our hearts. Each film will allow you to experience the profound connections between people and savour the complex flavours of life. The Film Programmes Office will screen Master Cheng at the EKCC, and we sincerely invite you to join this visual and culinary feast, embarking on a journey that nurtures the soul.
