Rice Distribution 平安米 Trailer

The Ghost Festival takes place during the seventh lunar month. The gates of hell are opened to free the hungry ghosts who wander the world seeking food. During this month, Chinese pay tribute to their ancestors and offer food to the deceased to appease them and ward off bad luck.

In Hong Kong, besides staging ceremonies to honor the dead, many Taoist organizations also give away rice to the elderly and the poor. The rice distribution depicted in this film was one of the largest events, and attracted over eight thousand people.

The event was scheduled to last from nine in the morning to six in the evening. In order to ensure a place in the line, most of the participants arrived before dawn.

故事描述2002年9月3日，在慈雲山球場舉行的一次盂蘭節派米活動。參加輪米人仕約有八千二百人，大部份為長者，當中亦有不少傷殘人仕。派米活動在當日上午九時開始，直­至傍晚六時結束，大部份參加者在清晨四時已抵達球場輪候，當日警方派出約百名警員到場維持秩序。

Visible Record, as an organization promoting documentary films, is to build a DVD distribution network of the latest and finest Chinese documentary films.
