In June 2020, China imposed a National Security Law on HK to quell political unrest. In the subsequent 12 months, some 90,000 residents left the city to settle abroad. Britain is the most popular destination. ¾ of the HK population qualifies for its BN(O) visa. Emigration, once a privilege of the well-to-do, has now become possible on a massive scale.
This documentary follows the journey of a few unlikely HK migrants, some fleeing the political crackdown, others simply wanting to give their families a better life. It intimately captures the hope and loss the migrants experience along their journey.
