The 41st Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF41), will kick off on April 11, 2017, at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Grand Theatre, with the World Premiere of Love Off the Cuff, directed by Hong Kong director Pang Ho-cheung.
Love Off the Cuff is a long-awaited reunion between Jimmy and Cherie in Pang Ho-cheung’s third installment of the romantic comedy since Love in a Puff (2010) and Love in the Buff (2012). Miriam Yeung and Shawn Yue reprise their popular roles as a star-crossed couple who strive to stay together happily ever after, only to find their already precarious relationship further strained by external circumstances. While the first and second films took place in Hong Kong and Beijing respectively, this time the action moves to Taiwan.
“Many people are very interested in the relationship between Cherie and Jimmy. In fact, their love story has not only spanned seven years, but also spanned different regions – Hong Kong, Beijing, and now Taiwan. I always think that a good relationship can cross borders and stand the test of time.” said director Pang Ho-cheung.

As one of the oldest film festivals in Asia, the global reputation of the Hong Kong International Film Festival was built on the pioneering work of programming Asian films and its retrospectives when Asian and Hong Kong cinema were not well known to the international community. Built on a solid reputation for programming, the HKIFF became the model for many subsequent film festivals around the region.
Today, the HKIFF has grown to be Hong Kong’s largest cultural event and is one of Asia’s most reputable platforms for filmmakers, film professionals and filmgoers from all over the world to launch new work and experience outstanding films. Screening over 280 titles from 50 countries in 11 major cultural venues in Hong Kong, the HKIFF reaches an audience of over 600,000 and 4,500 business executives attending the Hong Kong International Film and TV Market (FILMART).
Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF) started in 1977 and takes place in Hong Kong, China
