The Midnight After

Directed by Fruit Chan

A full minibus leaves Kowloon heading for the New Territories. When it arrives at its destination, the normally busy streets are eerily empty. As tensions in the group mount, everyone begins to wonder if they are they the only people left alive… and what catastrophe could have hit Hong Kong? Indie darling Fruit Chan delivers a real rarity – a Hong Kong science fiction film – if a typically off-kilter one.
