Conceived as part of a nine-months acting laboratory with a group of migrant domestic workers from Indonesia who had been victims of workplace violence in Hong Kong, Dea – directed by performance multidisciplinary artist Alberto Gerosa – is a rare example of a thoroughly independent Hong Kong (neo)realism: a Dardenne-esque portrait of a young woman from Indonesia that makes visible the lives of the overseas workers who enable Hong Kong's middle-class to accumulate capital, who raises their children and do their groceries, while suffering the brunt of the city's ungrateful, economic violence.
