5th Avenue Cinema Presents ...
Spacked Out
Dir. Lawrence Ah Mon (2000); Hong Kong; Cantonese; 93 min
Programmed by Alyssa
Set in the massive, crumbling urban developments in Hong Kong’s New Territories with a combination of trained actors and nonprofessionals, Spacked Out depicts a few tumultuous days in the lives of four schoolgirls, filled with desultory mall outings, classroom phone sex, and the occasional box-cutter brawl. A study of the everyday hope and despair experienced by Hong Kong’s dead-end kids that stands alongside Tsui Hark’s Dangerous Encounters of the First Kind (1980) and Fruit Chan’s Made in Hong Kong (1997), here focusing attention on young working-class women.
