Taking Hong Kong cinemas by storm in 2023, the courtroom crime drama A Guilty Conscience stars Dayo Wong as a sharp-tongued magistrate-turned-lawyer trying to appeal a past case he bungled and free his wrongly jailed client. However, he faces an uphill battle against conflicting interests and pressure from all sides. The first ever Chinese-language film to cross the HK$100 million benchmark at the Hong Kong box office, A Guilty Conscience marks the directorial debut of seasoned screenwriter Jack Ng, whose credits include Anita , Cold War II and The Beast Stalker . The Hong Kong legal mystery gathers a deep ensemble cast that includes Louise Wong ( Anita ), Tse Kwan Ho ( Hong Kong Family ), Fish Liew ( Anita ), Renci Yeung ( The First Girl I Loved ), ERROR's Dee Ho ( Chilli Laugh Story ), Adam Pak ( Breakout Brothers ), Bowie Lam, Vincent Kok and Michael Wong. Barrister Adrian Lam (Dayo Wong) is known for his sharp tongue and egotistical attitude. In 2002, he takes on a high-profile case involving single mother Jolene Tsang (Louise Wong), who stands accused of abusing her daughter. Lam, along with fellow barrister Fong (Renci Yeung) and legal executive Prince (Dee Ho), build their defense around testimony from Tsang's lover Desmond (Adam Pak), the husband of a tycoon's daughter (Fish Liew). Due to a crucial mistake by Lam, they lose the case and Tsang is sentenced to 17 years of jail. Down and disgraced, Lam moves his law firm to Mong Kok and begins taking on grassroots cases for ordinary folks. When a chance arises to correct his mistake, Lam reassembles the old team to reverse Tsang's conviction and seek a retrial. However, the prosecution led by Kam (Tse Kwan Ho) also elevates the charges against Tsang, and powerful forces behind the scenes seem to be working against Lam and Tsang. This edition comes with trailers and making-of features.
