PARIS and NEW YORK and LONDON, Dec. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- AMTD Group Inc. ("AMTD Group"), AMTD IDEA Group (NYSE: AMTD; SGX: HKB), AMTD Digital Inc. (NYSE: HKD) and The Generation Essentials Group ("TGE", NYSE & LSE: TGE), a subsidiary of AMTD Digital Inc., announce jointly that AMTD's latest film, "Mother Bhumi" (the "Movie"), emerged as a major winner at the 62nd Golden Horse Awards.

AMTD's movie segment has been steadily expanding its influence and prominence in the global film industry, establishing itself as an indispensable force. The company has successfully launched a number of critically and commercially acclaimed films, including "The Last Dance," which holds the record as the highest-grossing Chinese-language film ever in Hong Kong. AMTD-produced films also encompass a wide array of themes, including the corporate drama "A Gilded Game," the anti-drug film "White Storm 3," and the historical crime film "She's Got No Name" Part 1 & Part 2. AMTD presents "Shock Wave 2," set against the backdrop of Hong Kong. "My First of May" delves into the unpredictability of life, while "The Last Dance" provides a portrayal of traditional Chinese Taoist funeral rituals.

AMTD's recent movie "Mother Bhumi" demonstrates its support to the Malaysian film industry. The Movie features several renowned Chinese actors, including award winning Fan Bingbing and Natalie Hsu. The Movie has notably stood out at international film festivals. It received eight nominations at the 62nd Golden Horse Awards, ultimately winning three major awards, including Best Leading Actress for Fan Bingbing's breakthrough performance, as well as Best Cinematography and Best Original Film Song. Furthermore, "Mother Bhumi" has been selected for the Main Competition at the 38th Tokyo International Film Festival (TIFF) and a Work-in-Progress (WIP) project at the 23rd Hong Kong – Asia Film Financing Forum (HAF).

AMTD's collaborations with its partners are multifaceted and diverse. A notable example is the partnership with Fan Bingbing, which includes not only the Movie "Mother Bhumi" but also multiple cover shoots for TGE's L'OFFICIEL, with the latest one featured in the 2023 Fall edition of L'OFFICIEL Italia. Fan Bingbing also recently visited the world's first L'OFFICIEL COFFEE in Tokyo, Japan, showcasing the varied aspects of the collaboration.

Looking ahead, AMTD Movies is committed to bridging Asian and international cultures through the power of film. The company seeks to celebrate the richness of humanity while fostering a spirit of positivity, with the goal of contributing to a better world.
