When facing a path with no future or precedent success, will we ever choose to stay? Cheuk Cheung’s My Way explores the Cantonese Opera tradition of male Dan performers, men who play female roles, against the backdrop of a Hong Kong society increasingly putting less value on art. Although female performers have long been part of the mainstream of Cantonese Opera, the film follows the stories of two young men who are still fascinated by the art of the male Dan, striving to find their own way to carry on the practice. A moving and searching look at the struggle for identity, My Way is a colourful, musical and moving film which offers a unique and highly personal look at perseverance in the face of a changing society.

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
