00:10:19Well, I think the two things are the are the same, they're not mutually exclusive, I
00:10:23think that returning home is really. about returning to yourself and finding yourself and
00:10:27where you belong and restoring things to how the how they
00:10:30should be, and so that idea of a of very long journey, that
00:10:34idea of being taken away from your home for so long and
00:10:37reunited with home in all the forms of what it means,
00:10:41family, geographical place, time as
00:10:44well, um, it's really about
00:10:48that feeling of return where this just has
00:10:51changed, but the place is returning to the idea of home has changed.
00:10:55as well and finally restoring that uh, I think is very
00:10:59satisfying sense of of nostals of Hong Kong.

00:14:30film, and the cooperation there was great.
00:14:34I was surprised that I was traveling to
00:14:37act, and I loved the place there very much.
00:14:53The income
00:15:19that distinguishes Chinese cinema is their precision. I was
00:15:22very happy and this is a completely different experience. I have
00:15:26not tried it before, especially since their work is completely different from
00:15:29ours, so I benefited a lot, I enjoyed
00:15:32a lot, and I gained more
00:15:35experience. with different nationalities and different
00:15:39people, so of course it benefited me a lot.
00:16:25Why thank you. Chinese cinema concluded its bustling summer
