What Is Cockroach About?
The premise of Cockroach without spoilers.
In February 2019, a proposed bill in Hong Kong sparked widespread concern, as it would have allowed criminal suspects to be extradited to mainland China. This controversial measure raised fears of arbitrary detention and politically motivated trials, threatening Hong Kong’s autonomy. The bill ignited massive pro-democracy protests, largely organized and driven by young people utilizing social media. Filmed during this pivotal period, the documentary captures the intensity of an unprecedented era in Hong Kong's history.
