Gala Premiere To Be Hosted by DSOBA - In Celebration of the 140th Anniversary of DBS

I am extremely excited to announce that the first ever Charity Gala Premiere organized by DSOBA is now rescheduled to 8:30 pm Saturday, 27th February, 2010 at The Grand, Elements, 2/F., 1 Austin Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. The movie to be shown is directed by our very own old boy Alex Law Kai Yui (’71), award-winning director behind many classic movies, to name but a few 秋天的童話, 宋家皇朝and玻璃之城.

This time round, Alex has brought to us a very special creation, with Simon Yam Tat-wah and Sandra Ng Kwan-yu in the leading roles, a film about the laughter and tears of a poor family living in Hong Kong in the late 1960’s. As if to commemorate the 140th Anniversary of DBS, the movie’s backdrop is our mother school, and Desmond, the eldest son of the family in the movie, attended DBS.

Movie Name      - Echoes of the Rainbow

電影名稱         - 歲月神偷

Date                 - 27-Feb-2010

Venue              - The Grand Elements
