Returning to direct his second feature film after his hit TV series In Geek We Trust, director Lawrence Kan tells a searing fact-based story of abuse and delayed justice. When investigative journalist Kay is tipped off about abuse in a care home for the elderly and disabled, she goes undercover and discovers that the rot spreads far wider than she imagined. A stunning and provocative drama exposing what happens when the systems we trust fail us, this is an especially important film in an era when journalists are smeared as troublemakers.

Each screening of the Opening Films will include one of the 20th HKAFF souvenirs. One random item per film. Ticket price: $160; Bcinephile / MOViE MOViE member discount price: $136
