Hong Kong International Film Festival

The 48th Hong Kong International Film Festival (Chinese: 第48屆香港國際電影節) is the 2024 edition of the Hong Kong International Film Festival, which took place from 28 March to 8 April 2024 at various venues in Hong Kong. HKIFF selected Fruit Chan as the Filmmaker in Focus for this edition and featured masterclasses led by Víctor Erice and Martin McDonagh.

The festival opened with the Hong Kong LGBTQ-themed drama All Shall Be Well by Ray Yeung and closed with the Japanese drama All The Long Nights by Miyake Sho. This year, 190 films from 62 countries were screened, including five world premieres, six international premieres, and sixty-four Asian premieres. Karena Lam was chosen as the new ambassador of the HKIFF starting this edition, succeeding Aaron Kwok, who served for the past five years.
