S22 • E37 Nov 30, 2020 50mOn June 30, 2020, China's top legislature passed a new national security law for Hong Kong with far-reaching implications for residents of the territory. The new law came after more than a year of protests that at times saw the city rocked by scenes of violence and destruction.

In a city increasingly divided along political lines, we hear both the hopes and fears of Hongkongers caught up in these unprecedented times.
