Curated and produced by videoclub (UK) and Dr. Isaac Leung (HK), Both Sides Now 10 presents a dynamic compilation of artists’ film and video works from the UK and Hong Kong. This milestone 10th edition reflects on a decade of creative and cultural exchange, showcasing works that explore identity, heritage, queerness, speculative futures, and digital storytelling.

With bold aesthetics and experimental approaches, the program captures the diversity and complexity of our times, while remaining accessible, thought-provoking, and visually compelling.
