About
Strindberg’s thrilling psychological drama in a new politically-charged adaptation by Amy Ng.
Chinese New Year, 1940s Hong Kong. Julie is the daughter of the island’s British Governor. With her father away for the weekend, Julie comes downstairs to join the servants as they party, initiating a sexually-charged power game with her father’s butler.
What starts as a game descends into a fight for survival as sex, power, money and race collide on a hot night in the Pearl River Delta.
