Taiwan's 57th #Golden Horse Awards were held on the 21st, and the award for Best Short Feature Film went to "Night Shift", a film about Hong Kong's #anti-sentinel campaign, and the award for Best Documentary Film went to "Trek", a film about the six-year struggle of the villagers of Wukan, Guangdong Province. The directors of these films, #Guo Zhen and #Li Zhe Xin, are both young people from Hong Kong.

Night Shift.

After his short film "Night is Young" won the award, Guo Zhen expressed his solidarity with the 12 Hong Kong people who are currently imprisoned in Shenzhen through a speech in Hong Kong, saying that the film belongs to "Hong Kong people who embrace their conscience in every corner of the world.

He said that the film belongs to "every different corner of the world, while embracing the conscience of Hong Kong people. May everyone heal well, rest well, love well, take care of the complexity of human nature, and then choose goodness and stubbornness. Finally, he wanted to say to the world: May freedom belong to the people!

Guo Zhen was nominated for the Golden Horse Award in 2013 with his short film "Exile", and this is the second time he has been nominated. Night Shift is Guo Zhen's second work that deals directly with political themes, after Floating Melon. The story has a simple structure, alternating between reality and fiction, with scenes of protests such as the road blockade during the anti-delivery movement inserted into the fictional plot, and lightly depicting the people and events encountered by cab drivers overnight. From the perspective of a cab driver, it presents a certain aspect of the big time.

@ravenclaw @Sphinx Two comments: 1) The fraud is a pitfall for students of the professor. Students were instructed to fake data and figures to earn a diploma. After that, students were forced to sign a letter of guaranty which states the response of the reliance of data were attributed to themselves; 2) The college was motivated to cover up the fact since Tianjin University's chemical engineering and technology ranks the top among Chinese universities. Ranking down brings negative outcomes, such as less national funds and less top students.
