THE WAY WE ARE

Set in Tin Shui Wai, THE WAY WE ARE is a tender portrait of everyday life in Hong Kong. A widowed supermarket worker and her teenage son find resilience through work, family, and small acts of kindness. Anchored by Nina Paw’s luminous, Best Actress–winning performance, Ann Hui’s film also won Best Director and Best Picture, earning widespread acclaim. With gentle realism and compassion, it reveals dignity within ordinary struggles and remains a landmark of contemporary Hong Kong cinema. Nina Paw will be in attendance for this film to participate in an extended Q&A.
