Papa
From director Philip Yung comes another gripping true-crime drama, this time inspired by the shocking 2010 case of a 15-year-old boy who murdered his mother and sister. Nin Yuen returns to his cha chaan teng, haunted by memories of a once-happy family: his wife preparing breakfast, his son playing video games, and his daughter caring for their calico cat. Yuen finds himself unable to hate the living or forget the dead. As they confront life’s cruelty, will Yuen and his son’s strained relationship ever find redemption?
