Exciting news! We’re screening in the UK! Our short doc, The Prop Master’s Dream, will have its UK premiere at the 10th Annual Crossing the Screen Eastbourne International Film Festival in Eastbourne. (1.5 hrs from London by train) 📍 Cavendish Hotel 🗓 May 4, 2026, 6:00 PM Showing as part of the Hidden Grounds short film program exploring power, memory, and displacement. We wish we could be there to share this moment in person, as it was always our dream to go global with this unique story of Wah-Kwan Gwan and the art of Cantonese Opera. We’re so grateful to be part of this well-curated, multi-day festival featuring diverse voices from around the world ! From Vancouver’s Chinatown to the UK screen, what a journey!
