Hi there everybody! We invite you all to come enjoy Peng Chau island to our next movie night on 26th of April. This time we will watch our first Hungarian movie. But it will also be the first animated movie we watch. The movie is called 'Son of the White Mare' (1981) from director Marcell Jankovics: In this dreamlike Hungarian folk myth, a horse goddess gives birth to three powerful brothers who set out into the Underworld to save three princesses from three evil dragons and reclaim their ancestors' lost kingdom. The movie will have English subtitles. If you want to watch a Hungarian movie for the first time come and enjoy! We will start the movie at 7pm till 9pm in a terrace in Peng Chau. There is a ferry at 5:50pm from Central Pier N6 and arrives in Peng Chau at 6:30pm. I can meet people at the pier at 6:30pm. Or if you want to spend the day in Peng Chau and meet each other afterwards that's also fine! Please let me know if you are coming beforehand so we can prepare for us to meet and take you to the address. We want to encourage discussion about the movie and its theme afterwards. We will prepare some questions so we can debate about it together! You can bring your own food too. Also if you have more ideas on how to make our experience more fun, feel free to share it! If you have any question you can message me :) Hope to see you soon! MOVIE TRAILER>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQpIt3WgDHg

**US HARDCORE PUNK LEGENDS – FIRST SHOW IN HONG KONG!** Legendary American hardcore punk band Black Flag will make their long‑awaited first show in Hong Kong on 24 May 2026 at The Wanch, presented by The Underground HK. This exclusive “Live in Hong Kong” special will see the band bring their uncompromising energy to a packed Wan Chai club for one night only. Formed in California, USA, Black Flag helped define hardcore punk with their blistering speed, jagged riffs and confrontational lyrics, blazing a trail that influenced punk, metal and alternative bands around the world. Today, founding guitarist Greg Ginn leads a revitalised lineup featuring vocalist Max Zanelly, bassist David Rodriguez and drummer Bryce Weston, a configuration that has injected fresh momentum into the band while staying true to the raw spirit of their early work. Hong Kong fans can expect a full‑throttle, career‑spanning set as Black Flag tear through favourites from their back catalogue alongside material from their bold new chapter. A limited number of dedicated VIP tickets will also be available, giving die‑hard fans the chance to get even closer to the band on this historic first Hong Kong date. VIP ticket holders will be invited into the venue early for an exclusive pre‑show experience, including access to Black Flag’s soundcheck and an intimate meet‑and‑greet with the band. Supporting Black Flag on this historic night will be Round Eye, bringing their own wild, genre‑bending punk chaos. Wharney Hotel in Wan Chai is the Official Hotel Partner for Black Flag’s Hong Kong show. Situated in the vibrant heart of the district, Wharney Hotel is a four-star hotel offering modern comfort, outstanding service, and convenient access to Hong Kong’s dynamic nightlife. ​ **BLACK FLAG – LIVE IN HONG KONG** US Hardcore Punk Legends – First Show in Hong Kong!

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
