The Call Girls
In this 1973 documentary-in-feature, Hong Kong iconoclast actor, director, scriptwriter and producer Patrick LUNG KONG, focuses on the situation of prostitution in Hong Kong at that time, through the depiction of 5 different cases of girls exercising or co-erced into the profession.
A false talk show to support legalisation of prostitution in the British Colony relates the stories and hardships of the call girls in a context surprisingly contemporary, the suffering the girls endure,such as unwanted pregnancies, infection, lack of physical and economic liberty, hypocracy of bourgeois customers...
This controversial subject met with censorship as it was the first work made on the topic at a time when even the title "Call Girls" was unmentionable.
With this film, WONG combines his special talent for broaching a hot social issue and personal concern with a commercially successful appeal.
Now, almost 40 years after, the interest is intact.
