Hong Kong's first work based on the funeral industry "Broken. "Hell" is directed and written by Chen Moxian, starring Huang Zihua and Xu Guanwen.

Two generations of comedians in the film industry, Hui Guanwen and Huang Zihua, collaborated again after 32 years, and performed an unusual film with a special theme.

In order to deeply understand and cooperate with the plot of the movie, the two made full preparations in advance and were fully familiar with the funeral etiquette, including carrying out the bones of the ancestors, applying makeup, and chanting scriptures.

For the first time, Wanguo Funeral Home in Hong Kong lent its venue for filming, allowing the film to more realistically present a little-known side of the funeral home.

Zihua performed a scene in which he entered and exited a funeral parlor to provide funeral services for an ancestor. He bravely entered the mortuary passage late at night to film.

During the process of transporting the paper dolls from the underground garage of the funeral home to preparing for the mortuary, the performance was smooth in terms of atmosphere and rhythm. Even the director praised Zihua for his calm and smooth performance in the gloomy environment, which easily matched the atmosphere of the scene.

Huang Zihua set foot in a funeral parlor for the first time to film, and admitted that it was an unforgettable experience.

He said with an eye-opening eye: "If I hadn't made this movie, I wouldn't have gone in and out of places like Yizhuang and the funeral parlor. Especially in Yizhuang, you will feel waves of coolness, although the mountains and rivers are not beautiful. , you can’t see the mountains and water, but you will feel the aura and coolness of a resting place. Shooting in a funeral home is even more unforgettable, because the place you enter and exit is not the auditorium that everyone usually sees, but a deep place. Filming in the mortuary passage. "

As for the experience of filming in the funeral home, he added: "After completing this scene, I can think of three words to describe this unforgettable experience: "color, fragrance". In addition, this is the first time that a funeral home has been lent unconditionally. The real-life shooting was a reflection of the serious attitude and sincerity our film takes towards the funeral industry, so we thank them for their help.”

In addition, the director was also careful to communicate with the actors when dealing with some professional funeral terms and etiquette. He expressed his respect for this industry and expressed his gratitude to the funeral home for agreeing to lend it out for film shooting for the first time. It was also an unforgettable experience for him.

Looking forward to the movie’s early release!
