計劃簡述：
這故事由香港前途討論期間由英⽅提議的一個平行時空說起...
80s年代初，英國政府著⼿處理⾹港前途問題。中國在這問題上態度強硬，堅持收回⾹港主權，甚至威脅若談判破裂便會單方⾯宣布收回⾹港。英⽅考慮到在港長期經營的利益，極力主張所謂的「三條條約有效論」，極力保留英方對港島與九龍半島的統治權。為了在談判桌上多增⼀份信⼼，英方官員建議在《拓展香港界址專條》所訂的界線上，築建一道仿效德國柏林圍牆的「⾹港牆」，將當時的⾹港劃下南北分隔線，好讓英國在1997後仍保留其最後的「遠東殖⺠地」 。
這錄象嘗試勾畫「香港牆」建成後，香港社會的另⼀路徑。在這時空裡，「牆」既為物理空間的分割，也構成多重因素影響下的認同政治。而無論這「牆」到底是否存在，回顧這⼀段替代歷史或讓我們探討香港於其獨特的地緣政治下所處身的政治處境。
Project Description:
This story begins with a parallel world proposed by the British government during the negotiation of Hong Kong future in the early 1980s...
When the British started to negotiate the future of Hong Kong with the Chinese government, Chinese government has shown persistency and insisted on reclaiming Hong Kong's sovereignty. Considering the long-term interests that the British has invested in Hong Kong, they strongly advocated the validity of the three treaties, that is according to the Treaty of Nanking and Treaty of Peking, British own the sovereignty of Hong Kong Island as well as Kowloon Peninsula; while New Territories is on lease for 99 years and shall be returned to China in 1997. In order to show confidence to the Chinese government, British proposed to build Hong Kong Wall at the boundary between the New Territories and Kowloon, that imitated the Berlin Wall in Germany. In this circumstance, Hong Kong would be divided into northern and southern, as assurance to British to retain her last "Far East colony" after 1997.
This video is to depict the possible development of Hong Kong society as if the wall was built. Within this allegory, the wall serves not only as a physical division, but contributes in constructing or re-articulating the identity of Hong Kong people, which is influenced by various ideological, political and economic agendas. By reviewing this alternative history, I hope to discuss the uniqueness of Hong Kong together.
