Sponsor's Foreword
Groupama Gan Hong Kong's Foreword

As a leading insurance company in France, Groupama Gan has been operating in Hong Kong for over 15 years and provides general insurance protection to individuals, professionals and institutions.

Groupama Gan has a long-term commitment to social and cultural issues which are consistent with the group’s core values. Preserving heritage is at the core of an insurance company’s roles. It is in this spirit that the Group promotes an active commitment by supporting cinematography through the Groupama Gan Foundation for Cinema.

Since 1987, the Groupama Gan Foundation has been active on two fronts, namely, that of guardian of the world’s cinematographic heritage and promoter of contemporary cinema in the areas of production, distribution and exhibition.

This year, we are delighted to present one of the most ambitious projects ever in film restoration history, led jointly by the Groupama Gan Foundation for Cinema and the Technicolor Foundation: the color version of A Trip to the Moon by George Melies.

It is a great privilege to showcase this masterpiece, along with a touring exhibition at the Hong Kong City Hall celebrating the 150th anniversary of the film maker.

With a passionate belief in the power of film to unite cultures and generations, we are deeply honoured to support the 40th French Cinepanorama, which strengthens and cements our longstanding relationship with the Alliance Francaise more than ever, through the medium of cinema.
