YOUR RATING

The 23 years old young director Heiward Mak superbly designs and directs the phenomenal film to authenticate the tough, insolent, and rebellious teenage race. Acted by a cast with the average age of 17, High Noon is guaranteed to provide you with a fresh and authentic perspective for the raging youth hood for youngsters in Hong Kong.

While the world was welcoming for the Beijing Olympic Game, students in Hong Kong were busying to combat with the battle: O-level exam. 9 characters, in their adolescence age, were lost in the virtual and cruel reality that filled with sms, internet and materialism. The brittle and impetuous souls were touched by each other, with love and freedom that exclusively belongs to the youth. Crumbled friendship, frail love affair, complicated family, strikes between life and death, wear away the teenagerÂ’s heart in split second! Crying out loud for the aspiration to freedom under the sun! Honestly rise in the High Noon!

a local movie with social awareness

It is a very "Hong Kong" movie which a lot of Hong Kong filmmakers don't do anymore. It's a film with social awareness and consciousness. It speaks directly to the younger generation and the director shows a great understanding of what youth really means to those lost souls a few months before they finished with the first public examination of their life. It's a truthful and honest display of youth in Hong Kong. The angst, the confusion and those little moments when they were struggling to understand adulthood were beautifully shown. The dialog definitely came from a keen observation of the real and sometimes brutal world of teenagers. The acting is very natural. In her first directorial debut, Heiward Mak proved herself to be one up and coming Asian director to watch.
