The film THE BOUNTY (YUEN HUNG) has been selected for the 14th Udine Far East Film Festival.  The Fung Chi Chiang directed, Fiona Sit Hoi Kei, Alex Man Chi Leung and Chapman To Man Jat starred film will make its world premiere in Udine and has been scheduled for a summer Hong Kong release.  The three leads in the film interpret the story of a bounty in absurdly humorous methods.

Ten Hong Kong films have been selected this year.  Aside from THE BOUNTY, Pang Ho Cheung also has two films LOVE IN THE BUFF (CHUN GIU YU JI MING) and VULGARIA (DAI JOOK HEI KET); the latter also stars To Man Jat.  The film festival will take place at the end of April, Ah Jat and Pang Ho Cheung will attend.  He said that last year he made 8 movies and most were pure Hong Kong films.  He was very happy that two were selected for the Udine Far East Film Festival.  He said that with almost 20 years in the business he has experience the rise and fall of the Hong Kong film industry.  In recent years joy would be first and foremost goal for his movies.  If his movies would be brought outside Asia and to all over the world he would also feel honored.
