The 41st Hong Kong International Film Festival (HKIFF41), will kick off on April 11, 2017, at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre Grand Theatre, with the World Premiere of Love Off the Cuff, directed by Hong Kong director Pang Ho-cheung. 

Love Off the Cuff is a long-awaited reunion between Jimmy and Cherie in Pang Ho-cheung’s third installment of the romantic comedy since Love in a Puff (2010) and Love in the Buff (2012). Miriam Yeung and Shawn Yue reprise their popular roles as a star-crossed couple who strive to stay together happily ever after, only to find their already precarious relationship further strained by external circumstances.  While the first and second films took place in Hong Kong and Beijing respectively, this time the action moves to Taiwan.

“Many people are very interested in the relationship between Cherie and Jimmy. In fact, their love story has not only spanned seven years, but also spanned different regions – Hong Kong, Beijing, and now Taiwan. I always think that a good relationship can cross borders and stand the test of time.” said director Pang Ho-cheung.
