KJ Movie


Synopsis

KJ is a biography of a HK musical genius. At the age of 11, KJ won the Best Pianist price and went to Czech to perform with a professional orchestra. Touching on subjects such as the meaning of life, God and the artistic process, the director’s 6-year-conversations with KJ reveal how a young man inspires by his music teacher, Nancy Loo and his conflict with his peers and parents. KJ is not about the victory of a genius, but how he learns to be a “human being”.

Ka Ming -Film Critics

Shiu Ka-chun- University Lecturer
“KJ is arrogant and frivolous, but the genius is all like that.”

Director : King Wai Cheung
