Product Description

Realistically broaching the sensitive topic of mental health in Hong Kong society, Mad World has garnered a score of accolades, including Best New Director & Supporting Actor at the 53rd Golden Horse Awards, Best Director & Screenplay at the 23rd Hong Kong Film Critics Society Awards, & Best New Director, Supporting Actor & Supporting Actress at the 36th Hong Kong Film Awards. Shawn Yue delivers his best performance as a man struggling with bipolar disorder in the subtle humanist drama from first-time director Wong Chun. Eric Tsang & Elaine Jin co-star as his parents, who play significant roles in his journey of pain & healing.

Financial analyst Tung (Shawn Yue) endures constant stress & pressure from work, his fiancee (Charmaine Fong) & his bedridden mother (Elaine Jin) until, one day, he has a breakdown. After spending some time in a mental health institution, Tung is discharged into the care of his estranged father (Eric Tsang), a truck driver who lives in a single room in a subdivided flat. Tungs father is at a loss over how to help his son as he tries to be a good parent for the first time. Meanwhile, Tung wants to reintegrate into society, but society
- be it old acquaintances, prospective employers or concerned neighbors
- isnt exactly welcoming. Each day, he makes small steps, both forwards & backwards, as he struggles to cope with his illness & the circumstances of his mothers death.

This edition comes with making-of features & trailers.
