Event

We are a little over a year away from the twentieth anniversary of the Hong Kong Handover, and consequently this is an excellent moment to anticipate how the 1997 Handover will be remembered and commemorated. Taking as my starting point a set of three films and novels released in 1997, I argue that these contemporary Hong Kong artists offer a provocatively queer lens through which to consider the issues of history, futurity, and identity raised by the Handover.
