Hong Kong Trilogy: Preschooled Preoccupied Preposterous is a 2015 Hong Kong documentary-fictional hybrid film directed by Christopher Doyle. It's a portrait of Hong Kong told by three generations of real people: “preschooled” children, “preoccupied” young people, and “preposterous” senior citizens.

Production

Production began in late 2013, when the Chinese online video site, in conjunction with the Hong Kong International Film Festival, commissioned Doyle to direct a short film, HK 2014 – Education for All, for their omnibus film, Beautiful 2014. The short film that he contributed became the first part of Hong Kong Trilogy. Doyle then decided to build upon the style and expand it into a feature.

As noted by the New York Times, Hong Kong Trilogy was produced almost entirely outside of the mainstream film establishment. "All I did was create a construct for Hong Kong people to speak," Doyle said. In its quiet way, it depicts the daily life of seven million people who are still looking for their place in the world – a struggling democracy under the shadow of a rising China."
