乾旦路 (2012): Besetzung, Handlung & Streaming

Released in 2012, 乾旦路 is a dokumentarfilm and musik film directed by Cheuk Cheung, running about 72 minutes.

What it’s about. 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.

How it landed. With an audience score of 8.0/10, 乾旦路 sits among the best-reviewed titles in the catalogue.
