“History is not just a matter of date”, said Chris Patten in his last speech as British Governor of Hong Kong, shortly before the United Kingdom handed administration of the province back to China in 1997.

Her gripping documentary takes a critical look, for example, at the question of what Hong Kong actually is at this particular moment in time.
