Hong Kong Symphony: Heaven, Earth, Mankind
http://www.ovationtv.com/artszone/teachers/hongkong.html
Hong Kong Symphony: Heaven, Earth, Mankind touches on an unusually broad spectrum of issues both creative and political. Thus the film can be a springboard for wider discussion of several topics: the techniques of filmmaking; music -- classical and otherwise -- that is connected to politics; the history of the British takeover of Hong Kong in the last century, and reunification in 1997; colonialism in general; and the difference between the capitalistic and Communist systems.
Objectives :
- For students to practice musical skills and create a collaborative work similar to the one documented in the film
- For students to understand something of the history of the Opium Wars, the British takeover, and the push for reunification;
- To understand the basic film technique of montage, and how it can be used to tell a story;
- To understand the potential problems Hong Kong may have after reunification.
