This year's theme is "Film Factor" so the stars and the directors return to the workplace that they are the most familiar with. Between spotlights, tracks, equipment boxes and director chairs they display their passion and determination for their film careers. The photo series will not only be in the program but also made into postcards for film enthusiasts' collections.

Two time Golden Horse Best Actor Kwok Fu Sing was the favorite this year with PORT OF CALL (DAP HUET CHUM MUI). Playing a cop he precisely expressed how human nature perplexed him and his suspicions.

The Golden Horse nomination was a great encouragement to her comeback as an actor. Shu Qi was nominated for Best Actress with ASSASSIN.

Veteran actress Cheung Ngai Ga was nominated with OFFICE (WA LAI SEUNG BAN JOOK). Speaking of film, Cheung Ngai Ga said, "As an actress for over 40 years, I feel it is my responsibility. Film is a part of my life."
