The historic film "Echoes of the Rainbow" was shot on Wing Lee Street, a part of Sheung Wan District with original architecture dating from the 1960s. In the film's making-of documentary below (0:10), director Alex Law said that it was extremely difficult for him to scout a location for the film with an authentic 1960s atmosphere, since most of Hong Kong's old neighborhoods have been demolished.

shoes, the optimistic and protective mother (Sandra Ng); the oldest son (Aarif Lee) - smart, athletic and
optimistic about the future and love and the younger son (Chung Siu To) who is curious, can recite his alphabet
