Overview
Partnering with Audio Description Association Hong Kong, HKIPF presents our first audio description event: a double film screening.
We trust that in the future, audio description will no longer be regarded as a special service for visually-impaired individuals, but as a sensory option for everyone to experience when encountering a work of art. We can open our eyes and see, or close our eyes and listen: audio description may reveal new ways of understanding, interpreting and being.
