Hong Kong Cinema Appreciation Society

We love Hong Kong cinema, and hope you do to. | HK Cinema Appreciation Society started as an Instagram account, then grew into a YouTube channel. As of summer 2020, we are working with a university to become a legitimate film preservation, promotion, and studios organization (we'll give you news on this when/if it happens). Our long term plans include a physical space for a museum, library, shop, and movie theater, HK film preservation and restoration efforts, maybe a quarterly publication of some kind, and more.
