"The Mission" Chinese Theatrical Poster
The trailer for Ferris Lin’s Boundless, a documentary about Johnnie To – one of Hong Kong most respected filmmakers – has just been released. Known for this prolific, genre-hopping body of work, To is often overshadowed by the likes of John Woo, Tsui Hark and Ringo Lam. But to a seasoned cinema fan, To’s legacy is just as celebrated.
Official description: As Hong Kong’s foremost filmmaker, Johnnie To himself becomes the protagonist of this painstaking documentary exploring him and his boundless world of film. Ferris Lin boldly approached To to document the master director. To agreed immediately and Lin’s camera closely followed him for over two years, capturing the man behind the movies and his heartfelt love for Hong Kong cinema.

Should be interesting, I watch his films every chance I get!
