It was a “family affair” at the Hong Kong Film Awards (HKFA) on April 27, with actors playing family members in the films Papa and The Last Dance clinching acting awards.

Veteran actor Sean Lau, 61, won for his role as a father in Papa, which is based on the 2010 Heung Wo Street murders. The film is set in the aftermath of the tragedy, as the father navigates survivor guilt and seeks reconciliation with his teenage son, who killed his mother and sister.
