This is a vibrant youth musical that stars the two biggest names of its time. Wildly popular Jade Girls Connie Chan and Josephine Siao team up for the first time in a contemporary film, producing a phenomenal success for the company Chi Leun Films. In 1995, the Archive discovered the film's negatives at the now-demolished Olympia Theatre in North Point. The film was later restored with Chi Leun's blessing. It played to a full house at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre in 2011, a vivid illustration of Chan and Siao's enduring star power. Nancy Sit gets a foothold in the company of superstars, playing the spoiled younger sister of Chan. She finds herself in trouble after being fooled by a conniving but trendy boyfriend. Filmed in vivid Eastmancolor, Colourful Youth also features elaborate costumes and set designs rare for its time, resulting in a visual spectacle.
