Director's Note

Kong Kong is a story of domestic violence told through the eyes of a child. Growing up in an abusive household, Kong Kong faces a choice between protecting himself or helping his mother. He makes what he believes to be the right decision, but does that change the nature of domestic violence? After the emotional climax, the harsh realities remain: Kong Kong still has to face Huang Feng, and life, along with the violence, goes on.
