Below the Lion Rock: The Bridge
Below the Lion Rock: The Bridge
1978, Cantonese. Directed by Ann Hui.
Social drama with documentary-like touches.
One of Ann Hui's most admired works for the small screen, The Bridge examines a complex web of bureaucracy, vested interests, disillusionment and grass-roots campaigning. The title refers to a footbridge closed for demolition by the government, effectively cutting the main route to and from a roadside shantytown and triggering further local issues.
