Ming yue ji shi you (2017)

Ming yue ji shi you: Directed by Ann Hui. With Xun Zhou, Eddie Peng, Wallace Huo, Deannie Ip. In Japanese-occupied Hong Kong, a school teacher and her would-be-fiancé link up with Chinese guerrilla fighters, forging their own path to freedom.

“A well made drama set during the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong focusing on the smaller moments of lives of people involved in the resistance. I have seen so many films about Indiau0026#39;s freedom struggle as well as the communist resistance during the National emergency in India that there wasnu0026#39;t a single thing that I wasnu0026#39;t familiar with in this film even though it talks about an entirely different country and situation. Still its a well-shot film with great production design which was at times a bit too theatrical that chronicles the life and struggles of the Hong Kong resistance members.”
