Nominees for the 35th annual Hong Kong Film Awards were announced on Monday, with the movie Port of Call becoming the biggest potential winner.

With nominations for up to 13 titles, Port of Call is a 2015 Hong Kong crime thriller film written, edited and directed by Philip Yung.

Based on a real murder case, the movie tells a story of a dismemberment in Hong Kong in 2008.

Chinese actress Chun Xia, who has just won the Best Actress for Port of Call at the Hong Kong Film Critics Association Awards, will battle Best Actress out with Tang Wei of A Tale of Three Cities, Yeung Chin-Wah of Little Big Master, Sylvia Chang of Office and Karena Lam of The French Kiss.

The Best Actor battle is the most heated, with Andy Lau of Lost and Love, Aaron Kwok of Port of Call, Jacky Cheung of The French Kiss, Nick Cheung of Keeper of Darkness and Tony Leung Ka Fai of The Taking of Tiger Mountain fighting for the title.

This year's Hong Kong Film Awards will kick off on April 3.

Founded in 1982, the Hong Kong Film Awards have since been among the most prestigious movie awards in the region.
