Description

It is a triple-bill of three Hong Kong female choreographer-dancers: PK Wong, Alice Ma and Justyne Li. "Kong Girl" was a negative label on the female in Hong Kong. As time has passed with different political and social changes, "Kong Girl" has turned from a negative label to a positive one. Three female choreographers use totally different approaches to tell their own stories and to show their identity of being a "Kong Girl" with multi-perspectives.
