The movie LITTLE RED SWEET (HUNG DAU) has been in release for more than a week and was well received by all walks of life. The audience praised the film for its strong Hong Kong feelings, delicate and timely depictions. Following previous honors such as the "Golden Angel Award" at the 2024 Chinese American Film Festival and the closing film of the 2024 London East Asian Film Festival, the film was also selected for the 28th Sonoma International Film Festival and will be screened at the film and television festival. The film festival praised the telling of a warm story about family bonds and love through the background of a Hong Kong traditional dessert shop's survival under the threat of city planning.
Earlier director Vincent Chow Wing along with Simon Yam Tat Wah, Mimi Kung Chi Yan on the March 8th Women's Day visited different cinemas to thank the audience and interact with them. Director Chow Wing said, "Thank you for your support, our film LITTLE RED SWEET was selected for this year's Sonoma International Film Festival. The audiences in North America will be able to enjoy a film full of Hong Kong feelings." Yam Tat Wah said, "There are a lot of desserts, but I think red bean soup should go farther, to more places around the world so that people can enjoy this emotional movie in addition to food." Yam Tat Wah also laughed and said that many viewers will really go for red bean soup before or after watching LITTLE RED SWEET. While the sweetness was in the heart, their sugar content has also increased. Everyone should also put this sweetness in their hearts, so that people would be able to maintain a better relationship with others. Kung Chi Yan said, "Everyone feels so warm, I hope everyone will support LITTLE RED SWEET more."
An audience member asked Yam Tat Wah, why he has a grudge against his daughter (Stephy Tang Lai Yan) in the film? Kung Chi Yan smiled and said, "He is a chauvinist, it isn't a grudge." Yam Tat Wah said, "Teochew boys are good at taking care of their families, but they are rather chauvinistic. They are traditional patriarchs, and mothers would have a difficult time. Because in the past the family had to work, the family wanted a boy who would be able to help. They worked non-stop for 24 hours to take care of the family, but they didn't know how to express their love with their mouths."
Playing a flight attendant in the film, Amy Lo Wai Man two days ago thanked the audience with the director. The audience not only praised the movie for its good script, but also praised Amy's good interpretation of the role that left a beautiful impression.
