Funeral cosmetology and porcelain photos for the deceased are both crucial parts in the funeral trade and they both signify similar meanings. The former leaves the deceased with a peaceful and tidy appearance to farewell their families and friends in order to console their grief; while the latter leaves the images of the deceased on a tiny piece of porcelain forever, which serves to remind the descendants of their loved ones and to allow them to pay homage and remember the deceased. Most people fear and detest the funeral trade, but a young lad, Tin Yak chooses to take a funeral cosmetology course in a funeral institute in the mainland, and becomes one of the few male funeral cosmetologists in the trade. Tin Yak has no fears of sarcastic comments and contempt from others, and is resolved to develop his career in the trade with dedication and high commitment. Master Lai has remarkable experience in the production of porcelain photos after decades of work in this industry, and he is one of the last masters of porcelain photos. He recognises the significance of porcelain photos and all his products are therefore produced with great meticulosity, so as to ensure customer satisfaction. Master Lai has also been providing free training in recent years to make contribution in resolving the succession problem in the trade. The jobs of Tin Yak and Master Lai are not popular in many people’s eyes, but our farewell ceremonies will come with flaws without their professions. Their unrecognised contribution is hence deserving of more respect.
