Synopsis:
The Last Dance (Chinese: 破·地獄) is a 2024 Hong Kong drama film directed and written by Anselm Chan. Starring Dayo Wong, Michael Hui, Michelle Wai, and Chu Pak Hong, the film explores themes related to Hong Kong's deathcare and follows a wedding planner (Wong) who enters the funeral industry through a partnership with a traditional Taoist priest (Hui), seeking to understand the meaning of life and death through funeral rituals.
Marking the third feature film as a director, Anselm Chan transitioned from comedy to drama after conceiving the story during the COVID-19 pandemic. He began writing the screenplay in 2022 while filming Ready or Rot (2023), with principal photography taking place from January to March 2024. The film was shot on location at the Tung Wah Coffin Home and the International Funeral Parlour, marking the first time these venues have opened to the public for filming.
The film had its world premiere on 11 October 2024 at the 44th Hawaii International Film Festival, followed by a theatrical release in Hong Kong on 9 November. The film broke numerous box office records, grossing over HK$122 million as of early December, making it the highest-grossing domestic film of all time in Hong Kong.
