Project Spotlight 2019

With the support of Joy Beyond Vision Community (JBVC) and Across U-hub, BrokerTeam Insurance hosts and organizes its film festival for a second year: Project SPOTLIGHT 2019. In November 2019, Project SPOTLIGHT will bring to Canadian audiences an inclusive screening of the Hong Kong documentary film My Voice, My Life. Directed by Oscar-winning director Ruby Yang, this internationally acclaimed documentary tells the story of personal growth by a group of at-risk youths as they go through six months of rigorous training to produce a theatrical music performance.

For an inclusive film screening, Across U-hub’s young vocal talents will perform live audio description for the visually impaired via wireless headset systems, with script provided by The Hong Kong Society for the Blind. The film’s director, Ruby Yang, and creative consultant, Lambert Yam, will be in attendance from Hong Kong to share their thoughts.

Join us in creating an impactful dialogue between parents, teenagers, educators and business leaders.
