Event Description

Portraits is an intimate window into the life of Hung, a sketch artist in the middle of a bustling night market of Da Nang, Vietnam. With 2 charcoal pencils and masterful skills, he captures the essence of his subjects in minutes. In a world increasingly obsessed with the speed and precision of Artificial Intelligence, Hung offers a quiet and profound reflection on what it means to create. The film explores his personal journey from discovering a hidden talent to finding purpose in creating tangible, hand-drawn memories for strangers.
