Curiosità
G Affairs is a 2018 Hong Kong thriller film directed by Lee Cheuk-pan and produced by Herman Yau. Starring Hanna Chan, Chapman To, and Huang Lu, the film centers on a young girl (Chan) who faces bullying at school due to the online exposure of her corrupted cop father (To) and the social status of her prostitute stepmother (Huang).
Production
Director Lee Cheuk-pan conceived the screenplay for G Affairs in 2012, shortly after returning to Hong Kong from Beijing to pursue a filmmaking career. Originally set in mainland China, the story faced difficulties when Lee presented the project at the Bucheon International Fantastic Film Festival Project Market and Golden Horse Film Project Promotion, struggling to secure investors due to being labeled "unmarketable".
Principal photography began in December 2017. Location shooting occurred in Causeway Bay on 24 January 2018, where Chapman To was spotted on set. Tai's apartment, a recurring location in the film, was shot at a tong lau on Percival Street, Causeway Bay.
Director Lee Cheuk-pan explained that the film is titled "G" Affairs to symbolize a connection throughout the movie. The production crew identified eighteen words starting with "G", including "Guts", "G cup", "Gun", "Girdle", "Gastric cancer", "Giving head", "Gonorrhea", "Goon", "G Major", and "Gustav Klimt", each of which relates to specific plot points.
