Victoria Prison: Individual Memories (2025) explores the memories and emotions of individuals connected with Victoria Prison.

In ‘Enforcing Discipline’, a former correctional services officer recounts his experience working in the prison and the challenges that came with it. In ‘A Free Man’s Return’, a pardoned ex-inmate revisits the prison and reflects upon his past. In ‘Listener’, a prison chaplain discusses how he reaches across language and cultural differences to delve into an inmate’s inner world. Lastly, ‘Ways of Co-Existence’ explores the complexity of interpersonal relationships between correctional services officers and inmates.

As part of a permanent exhibition, the film installation can be experienced inside E Hall, a former prison compound. Conservation efforts on E Hall have retained its original architectural layout and the Chinese tiled roof with timber framework. Some of its former cells have been converted into a café and backstage dressing rooms – an example of Tai Kwun’s adaptive reuse. To enhance its heritage value, the series of documentary films explores a new interpretation of the former Victoria Prison through first-hand accounts of prison life to gain a deeper insight into the common values of humanity which transcend the prison’s boundaries.
