City Without Baseball

Director
Lawrence Lau
Lawrence Lau (also known as Lawrence Ah Mon) was born in South Africa in 1949. He grew up in Hong Kong and later studied film production in California, USA. He was an assistant director for Tsui Hark and went on to become one of the major directors of the 2nd New Wave of Hong Kong Cinema in the late 1980s. He is renowned for his on-location realism and a sensitivity for humanistic drama, always motivated to root his characters into the social context of an era. His first majorly acclaimed film Gangs (1988) deals with triad youths. His continuing interest in exploring the young generation as they confront social problems in modern Hong Kong was demonstrated in Queen of Temple Street (1990), A Boxer's Story (1991) and Spacked Out (2000).

Scud
Born in mainland China amid the Great Culture Revolution, Scud was raised by the hands of his beloved grandmother, before moving to Hong Kong with parents and a younger brother at 13. In spite of excellent results from the secondary school, he had to devote the next 20 years to a career of IT, worked for multi-national companies, founded a public listed company, and acquired a bachelor degree thru part-time study. He moved to Australia for a permanent residence and to reflect on his life. Realizing that he has fulfilled the dream of others but not his own --- music and literature, he returned to Hong Kong to start an indie film company, Artwalker, wrote and made his first film, City Without Baseball.
