Sara / Chor gei

Window: Hong Kong
Journalist Sara has just spent four months completing an in-depth investigation piece about sex tourism. Her editor-in-chief, afraid of offending powerful politicians and business moguls, refuses to run it. Sara’s boyfriend, who works for the same magazine, sides with the editor-in-chief. Having reached a low point in her life, Sara flees to Thailand. Here she meets the underage prostitute Dok-my. During her time getting to know Dok-my and through the process of rescuing her from the dirty jaws of the sex business, Sara becomes haunted by the memories of her own past. Director Herman Yau’s SARA is a striking character study within a highly controversial context.
