The Juno Mak Chun Lung and Japanese actress Sora Aoi starred REVENGE A LOVE STORY (FOOK SAU JEH JI SEI) competed in the 33rd Moscow International Film Festival. Two days ago Juno and director Wong Ching Po flew to Moscow to prepare for tonight's award ceremony.

The event took great care of them this time. Aside from preparing a translator they even provided transportation. After arriving at the hotel to wash up, that night they visited nearby before the press conference to experience Moscow. Juno who loved photography did not forget to take photos and was rather interested in unique Moscow buildings and local street performers. He said, "Before coming to Moscow I heard the people of Moscow were cool, but I thought they were very friendly."

Juno and the director then attended a press conference. The local media thought this type of bloody and violent romantic subject was very rare in Hong Kong. One of the jury members Dr. Hans-Joachim was a Germany Film Festival jury member, rather appreciated the film and asked Juno to send the film to compete in Germany.

  1. I live in Moscow and was there. Their first screening (for press) was on 30th of June (after that I had an hour interview with Wong and Juno) and it was pretty dull, but two screenings for more common public, on 1st and 2nd, were a blast, as I heard.
