Film director James produced a short film under the pandemic. He invited his good friend Man as his main cast. After the completion of the short film, Man was suddenly arrested and put behind bar. James was worrying about if Man could adapt the life in prison. James planned to write letters to Man. When he started to write, James is feeling helpless that he found his daily life during the pandemic might somehow similar to what Man was confronting.
Directed by Jason Yiu Man-Kwan, A Letter from Prison leans on a strong ensemble — Himmy Wong — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2022.
