Director of Drifting Petals – a film takes anti-ELAB movement as background – clinches Golden Horse Best Director Award

The Kong Kong raised Melbourne film maker Clara Law snatched Best Director at the 58th Golden Horse Awards, after being nominated for a Golden Horse award for the seventh time.

The film, Drifting Petals, took 2019 anti-ELAB movement in Hong Kong as background. With protest scenes and images intertwined in the film, Law illustrated not only changes that Hong Kong has undergone, but also the fear and anxiety among Hong Kong people.

The jury praised Law for using a "poetic" way to examine history and reality, showcasing her talent and vision.

Now residing in Australia, Law thanked the jury for bringing the film to Taiwan. Actress Lin Lai received the best director award for Law and spoke on her behalf in the ceremony.

Lai quoted Law that “perhaps, Taiwan and European countries are the only places in the world where her work could be officially shown.”

Lai carried on saying, “She (Clara Law) is a Hong Kong Director. She made this film in Hong Kong but it remains unclear whether the film can be shown there.”
