劇情大綱:
紀錄片《消失的檔案》製作經年，以影像紀錄六七暴動這段香港重要歷史。
本片導演訪問了親歷暴動的各方人士，包括左派領導、工會領袖、炸彈隊成員、前警務人員、高官、記者、以至學生等，又翻查大量舊報章以及英國解密檔案。採訪過程中，更發現當年國務院外事辦公室港澳組副組長吳荻舟的《六七筆記》，揭露中共中央對六七暴動細節一直知情並經常作出指示。
導演用四年時間，鍥而不捨地追蹤、綜合、分析海量資料，重塑一段段驚心動魄、影響深遠的歷史，目的只有一個：事實必須尊重，教訓應當記取。
我們要尋回真正的香港1967。

Synopsis:
“Vanished Archives” is an image record of the 1967 riots, an important historic event in contemporary Hong Kong.
The production team interviewed people who have directly involved and witnessed the riots. They are leaders from the leftist camp and trade unions, former police officers, seniors government servants, members of the explosives team, journalists and students. Large amount of newspaper clippings and declassified National Archives of the British Government were also reviewed in the process. Among all others, the “Notes on 1967” written by Ng Tik-chow, deputy head of the HK & Macao Group of the Foreign Affairs Office under the State Council, revealed that the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party was well informed of details of the riots and issued orders from time to time.
For over 4 years, film director Connie Lo Yan-wai persevered in tracking down, consolidation and analysis of the massive amount of information to reconstruct the historic segments of profound and far-reaching impacts on the territory. “Respect the facts, and learn from the lessons.” This is the vision of the director.
We want to find the real 1967 Hong Kong.

「銀幕·香港」香港Indie電影網上展 2023
HKOS Indie Film Online Showcase 2023
獨立電影這個概念對很多觀衆來説或許比較陌生，但卻是電影工業裏面不可或缺的一部分。獨立電影因為偏向受導演和製作團體個人意念的主導，一般不受公司或商業團體的掌控。而香港的獨立電影種類繁多，很多既能反映出社會利弊，又能幫助我們對世道人情的理解。獨立製作也啟發我們的批判精神，從而對自己身處的環境作出關注和反思。
今次身處海外的「銀幕·香港」決意接力舉辦香港網上獨立電影節，將於2023年10月20日至11月20日重現「影意志」最後出品的短片集《動態Rolling》（2022），以及「影意志」前藝術總監、香港獨立電影節策展人崔允信的三部舊作：《憂憂愁愁的走了》(2001)、《無花果》(2013) 和《三條窄路》(2007)。
另外，「銀幕·香港」也選了三部紀錄片，包括：《消失的檔案》(2017)、《3cm》(2019) 以及《戲棚》(2019)。「銀幕·香港」希望借這次全球網上電影展，能讓更多香港人了解香港獨立製作的生態，探討未來的影視出路，再次燃起香港獨立製作的新希望。

Independent Film might be strange to most audience, however, it's an essential component of the film industry. Independent films are nonetheless driven by the creative vision of the director and production team, free from the control of companies and commercial entities. In Hong Kong, independent films span across genres, with stories that often ask viewers to critically reflect on current societal issues and to push viewers to better understand the complex world within and beyond Hong Kong. Independent production also inspires critical thinking, prompting us to pay attention to and reflect on our environment.
"Hong Kong On Screen (HKOS)," based in Los Angeles, hopes to carry the torch and host a Hong Kong Online Independent Film Showcase. From October 20, 2023, to November 20, 2023, we will sequentially showcase a variety of Hong Kong independent productions, including Ying E Chi’s final production “Keep Rolling (2022)”, "Leaving in Sorrow (2001)" "Figs (2013)," and "Three Narrow Gates (2007)" by Vincent Chui, Ying E Chi’s former artistic director and curator of the Hong Kong Independent Film Festival.
And three documentaries, "Vanished Archives (2017)," "3cm (2019)," and "Bamboo Theatre (2019)" HKOS hopes that through this global online film exhibition, more people in Hong Kong and overseas can better understand and appreciate independent film production in Hong Kong, explore future possibilities for film and media, and reignite interest and hope for independent productions in Hong Kong.
