Screen International invites you to a virtual FYC screening for the film Zero To Hero

Official submission | Hong Kong

This screening is open to awards voters and industry professionals and will be available for 24 hours after the start time.

Zero To Hero (Hong Kong) – Dec 9, 3pm UK time

Zero To Hero tells the true story of Hong Kong athlete So Wa Wai, born with cerebral palsy, who won the first Paralympic gold medal for Hong Kong in 1996 and went on to win several other medals. It was produced by Sandra Ng, who also plays So’s mother in the film, while two actors – Leung Chung Hang and Fung Ho Yeung – play So at different stages of his life.

After receiving its world premiere at Udine’s Far East Film Festival, the film generated an impressive box office of $3.55m (HK$27.6m) in Hong Kong, making it the highest-grossing local production of the year.

Screen International has partnered with film market platform Archipel Market on a series of screenings focused on the awards race.
