| Overview: | "Dare Ya!" explores what has made the members of Hong Kong's most controversial band, LMF (LazyMuthaFuckaz), the new "voice of Hong Kong youth". It also looks at what makes each member the individual that he is.
With their explicit tell-it-like-it-is lyrics that speak of today's questioning youth market, the ten-member LMF address issues that have always been at the core of teen-angst music--but the difference being that, for the first time, the subject matter tackled is what is primarily relevant to the young and the restless of Hong Kong.
Their music may raise eyebrows with the older generation, but to their hardcore fan base, LMF's point of view is their "voice" and their music is the heartbeat--and their hopes, dreams, nightmares, concerns, problems, and solutions for their future.
As the title of this raw, different, relevant, and timely film suggests, "Dare Ya!" is a challenge to Hong Kong to take a good look at itself, warts and all, because only by facing up to our flaws can we become the "World City" that we aspire to.
"Dare Ya!" is not just a documentary about the exploits and growth of ten ordinary young men from the Estates who just happen to be members of a rap band, but a wake-up call for Hong Kong.
