A hard-hitting film about Hong Kong youth

M i-August is a debt collector for a certain Mr. Wing, close to the local triads. His daily life will be turned upside down by two events: the discovery by Jacky, a mentally handicapped little thug he has taken under his wing, of two farewell letters left by a young suicide, and his meeting with the pretty Ah Ping with whom he quickly falls in love. However, the latter is suffering from an incurable disease...

Filmed a few months before Hong Kong was annexed by China, the third film by director Fruit Chan angrily conveys the sense of urgency of this society with an uncertain future. A sentimental thriller carried by a troupe of non-academic actors, Made in Hong Kong shows the malaise of a youth who has lost all bearings in the urban jungle of a megalopolis. Discover it for the first time on Blu-ray™ in its splendid 4K restoration!
