Born in Hong Kong, Ho Lam is 46 years old.
He moved with his parents at a very young age to France, to Nice precisely. Following his love for cinema, he moved to Paris to attend a cinema school and shoot his first productions. His first short film, Paul Zadig, was selected at the Sens Festival (1998) and was awarded the “Clap d’or”. In 2002, his documentary-essay Imagine Hong Kong was selected for the Arceuil Festival. In 2008, Bird’s Nest, produced by the G.R.E.C., was shown at the Clermond-Ferrand Festival in the regional section. In 2015, with the Films du Cygne, he directed Mantra, which was selected in numerous national and international festivals (Contis 2016, Villeurbanne 2016, award at the Roberto Di Chiarra Festival 2016 in Argentina etc.). In 2019, he directed his latest short film, The Discrete way, shot in Normandy, still with the Films du Cygne.
