Christine Choy
Trailblazing filmmaker Christine Choy will receive Hot Docs’ Outstanding Achievement Award at this year’s 30th anniversary Festival, April 27 to May 7.
Co-director of the Oscar-nominated Who Killed Vincent Chin?, Choy was the subject of the awarding-winning The Exiles, which had its international premiere at last year’s Festival.
As part of the honour, Hot Docs will screen a curated retrospective of Choy’s fearless films, celebrating her illustrious career and ardent activist spirit. Choy will be participating in a public event and several Q&As for her film screenings.
