During his studies in Edinburgh in 2021, filmmaker Fredie Chan experienced a protest by the locals to fight for their housing rights, as developers are discovered to be converting empty lots and unused old buildings into new international students flats, rather than resolving severe housing shortage for the locals. From the perspective of a Hongkonger, who is no stranger to housing problems, the documentary follows a group of local grassroots housing advocates, attempting to investigate the crisis, connecting the dots between global and local. Screened with the director’s previous film Beautiful Life, about an Indonesian girl who left her homeland to work as a domestic helper for a financially unstable grassroot family in Hong Kong.

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
