쪽빛 하늘 (2018)

藍天白雲

다큐멘터리 작업으로 잘 알려진 청킹와이 감독의 극영화데뷔작으로, 충격적인 실화를 소재를 통해 홍콩사회의 현실을 서늘한 시선으로 담아낸 수작. 임신한 경찰관 안젤라는 부모를 살해한 혐의로 체포된 고등학생 코니의 조사를 맡는다. 태연하게 자신의 범죄를 시인하고 사건을 설명하는 그녀를 보며 사건의 이면에 다른 사연이 있지 않을까 생각한다. 영화는 치매에 걸린 아버지로 일상생활이 불가능한 안젤라의 일상과 코니의 충격적인 사건을 교차로 보여주며 질식할듯한 현실의 무게를 견뎌내는 홍콩인들의 모습을 집요하게 담아낸다.

흥미로운 사실

Somewhere Beyond the Mist is a 2017 Hong Kong drama film directed by King Cheung, with action choreography by Paco Yick Tin-Hung. It was the winning project of the first First Feature Film Initiative and was funded by the Hong Kong Film Development Fund. The film stars Stephy Tang, Rachel Leung, Zeno Koo, Baby Bo, and Kyle Li. The story is inspired by a real-life murder case in the United States involving a Hong Kong teenager and her boyfriend. Somewhere Beyond the Mist made its world premiere at the Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) on 15 October 2017.

Production

While living in the United States in 2000, Cheung came across a news story about a Hong Kong teenager, Connie Leung, and her African-American boyfriend, Eric Louissaint, who conspired to murder her parents and dumped their bodies in the East River. Deeply moved by the tragedy, Cheung wrote the first draft of an award-winning script God's Apple.

The script was shelved for seventeen years until Cheung revisited it for the First Feature Film Initiative. After extensive revisions, the story was adapted into his debut feature film. To better resonate with Hong Kong audiences, Cheung relocated the story's setting from the United States to a rural village house in Yuen Long, Hong Kong, aged the characters down to high school students, and incorporated local social issues into the narrative.
