About the film
Pants Theatre Production has previously produced Estate Agent and On the Record with the spirit of ethnodrama, focusing respectively on the real estate agents and journalists who are closely related to Hong Kong, but have rarely been featured in the Hong Kong theatre. Social workers are at the forefront of society, facing different levels of the community every day. This time, via the viewpoints of social workers, Together in Search of Light will examine the relationship and development between Hong Kong society and social workers, hoping to search for a better future for fellow Hongkongers.
