"People from Guangdong can have dozens of different places of origin, resulting in the existence of clansmen associations of all sizes in Hong Kong. Titled “My Hometown”, this season of “Hong Kong Stories” consists of ten episodes that aim to showcase the stories of Hong Kongers searching for their places of origin. We will visit various clansmen associations and interview those who share the same root. As the saying “when in Rome, do as the Romans do” goes, different places of origin naturally have different customs, diets and traditions. Our camera will bring our viewers to their originating hometowns that they may have never set foot on. “My Hometown” is not merely a record of Hong Kong culture, but also an endeavour to find disappearing traditions."--RTHK website.
