Besieged City
Ling-Kit HO is just like one of many other students in Tin Shui Wai. However, he is a lot more hard-working than all the others as he wants to get away from this besieged city. Apart from his study, he is indifferent to everything because he comes from a defunct family. Having to take care of his mentally-ill mother, Ling Kit is also forced to face his Dad – a heavy drunker and a heavy gambler. His younger brother Chun-Kit has left the family for years. At that time, Chun-Kit was heavily bullied by his classmates in school and he was always beaten by his drunken father. Being the elder brother, however, Ling-Kit did not protect Chun-Kit from being beaten so Chun-Kit left in great panic.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The director constructs a harrowing drama that relies on raw, unflinching realism to explore the cycles of violence and neglect within a marginalized community. It builds its power through quiet observation rather than overt melodrama.
What lingers after the final frame is a profound sense of despair and the heavy cost of escape. A stark, necessary portrait of a social wound. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Lawrence Ah Mon
