Synopsis
The cradle of the modern world, letterpress printing, is now an endangered craft. Why, and how has it survived in an era of digital technology? PRESSING ON: THE LETTERPRESS FILM is a fascinating and surprisingly moving documentary that follows a group of young printers and letterpress veterans. They strive to preserve the myriad personalities behind blocks of wood, metal, and type - a poetic reflection on the rapid digitalization of today. Post-screening talk in Cantonese by Yung Sau-mui, author of《香港字二百年》.
