Guilty

Guilty follows Chan Siu-yau as her life is disrupted by charges of unlawful assembly and assault against a police officer. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a demonstration supporting striking dock workers, illustrating the tensions between activists and law enforcement. As she navigates her work in a restaurant, the annual June 4 candlelight vigil serves as a powerful reminder of the ongoing struggles faced by advocates for rights and justice.

The film raises questions about beliefs, guilt, and the personal costs of activism. It highlights the obstacles faced by individuals who challenge authority while also grappling with their own aspirations. With a cast led by May Leong and Ng Kam Chuen, Guilty is both a personal story and a reflection on broader societal issues.
