Plot
Throughout Hong Kong’s history, Hongkongers have fought for freedom and democracy but have yet to succeed. In 2019, a controversial extradition bill was introduced that would allow Hongkongers to be tried in mainland China.
Sinekatalog’s take
An up-close chronicle of Hong Kong's protest movement, leaning on frontline footage and voices from those who took part. It is partisan, urgent and emotional rather than neutral. A powerful, risky piece of filmmaking for those who want the movement's perspective.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
