8 Events to Check Out this Weekend

The Summer is Gone

It’s been a difficult week in Macau. What makes it a uniquely beautiful place are the brave people that have kept on moving forward following the destruction that has dampened the city’s atmosphere. While we have compiled the events that are happening in the city, we suggest that you check directly with the event venues and organizers if the agenda is still on.

THE SUMMER IS GONE

(Featured image above)

Marked as the Best Feature Film and the Best New Performer at the 53rd Golden Horse Award 2016, don’t miss “The Summer is Gone” at Cinematheque-Passion.

Strongly influenced by “The 400 Blows”, first-time director Zhang Dalei offers a beautifully shot, black and white drama, unfolding his semi-autobiographical reminiscence of childhood and his melancholic ode about the end of an era. Set in the early 1990s, a 12-year-old boy spends his summer vacation in an Inner Mongolia town, where his father, a worker in a state-owned film studio, is about to be laid off because of privatization. Nostalgic and delicate emotions elegantly infuse careful compositions with naturalism.

When: August 29–31, 2017

Where: Cinematheque-Passion, 13 Travessa Da Paixao, Macau

How much: MOP $60

For more details, contact +853 2852 2585, www.facebook.com/events

SMALL CITY STORIES: MEMORIES AND ANECDOTES FROM THE THREE LAMPS

This year, the Community Art Project of Ox Warehouse revolves around the Three Lamps District (aka Rotunda de Carlos da Maia). The people who were born and grew up in this area, the Burmese Chinese who settled in Macau after the anti-Chinese riots in Burma in the 1960s, owners and staff of stores and restaurants in the neighbourhood, schoolboys and girls on their way to and from school or just stopping for lunch, the old folks as well as the immigrant workers from Southeast Asia gathering in the leisure area.

People from different walks of life revolve daily around this lamp post, and therefore the tiny roundabout congregates a diverse community living in their own ways, but closely knitted.

Together with the project creative types, through communication, research and interviews with the residents in different approaches, on different subjects and topics of their interest, we aim to sort out and compile personal stories related to the Three Lamps District residents and its neighborhood, which will be presented through different artistic angles, on a variety of media.

When: September 3–27, 2017

Where: 2F Gallery of Ox Warehouse, no Cruzamento da Avenidado Coronel Mesquita coma Avenida Almirante Lacerda, Macau

How much: Free admission

For enquiry: +853 2853 0026

The second one is the Local Photography Series—”The Harmony Collection & The Dream Collection”. Alongside there are two local photography series that have been developed featuring the disabled and abled community to echo the British version and named “The Harmony Collection” and “The Dream Collection”. “The Harmony Collection” captures the magic moment of the interaction between the local community, merchants, the underprivileged community, and disabled during community events through ten joyful, blissful, and touching images. “The Dream Collection” aims to bring the disabled and the professionals together, allowing the former to share and learn about photography theory and shooting skills, so as to deliver the positive message of “Physical Constraints Do Not Affect Personal Ability” to the general public.
