Discover the heartfelt story of Angie and Pat, a well-off lesbian couple in their 60s. After Pat’s unexpected passing, Angie navigates emotional and legal challenges, leading her on a path of empowerment. The Berlinale’s 2024 Teddy Award winner, directed by Ray Yeung, shines a light on the realities faced by the older queer community.

Stay for an engaging discussion with Director Ray Yeung and Lawyer Alfred Ip to delve deeper into the film's themes.

As the timeline set by the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal draws to a close in September this year, the panel discussion will explore possible approaches to create a legal framework for same-sex partnerships, drawing on comparative experiences, including those from Germany. The discussion will be opened to the audience at the end.
All events are free of charge in cooperation with the EU delegation!
