Two Fresh Wave Short Films Involving Political Issues Await Certificates of Approval
鮮浪潮國際短片節中兩部牽涉政治議題的短片《群鼠》和《Time, and Time Again》在放映前未獲電影、報刊及物品管理辦事處發「核准證明書」。十六屆鮮浪潮國際短片節導演翌日發表聯合聲明指電檢處拖延發放審批等同禁播，並敦促處方盡早回應審批結果以及解釋延遲發布的原因。
Two short films involving political issues, “The Rat Race” and “Time, and Time Again,” at the Fresh Wave International Short Film Festival had not received Certificates of Approval from the Office for Film, Newspaper and Article Administration before their screenings. Directors at the 16th Fresh Wave International Short Film Festival issued a joint statement the following day, saying that the Film Censorship Authority’s delay in issuing approval amounted to a ban on screening. They urged the authority to respond as soon as possible on the approval results and explain the reasons for the delay.
