Blossoms of Luck (2026)

This documentary immerses viewers in the West Lake Spring Flower Fair of Yuexiu District, employing ethnographic fieldwork across multiple locations to follow the 2024 fair's unfolding story. It celebrates the deep-rooted floral traditions of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area — a heritage steeped in Lingnan and Cantonese culture that encompasses cherishing, appreciating, incorporating, and cultivating flowers. These beloved practices reach their peak during the Spring Festival custom of strolling through flower markets. As a unique living heritage where everyone plays a part in carrying it forward, this tradition stands as both a vital cultural anchor and a timely rallying cry for deepening Greater Bay Area integration and strengthening the shared identity of the Chinese nation.
