Episode 2

In October 2019, as Beijing celebrates 70 years of the People's Republic of China, Hong Kong is being torn apart by violent protests. Using groundbreaking artificial intelligence to protect the identities of the protesters, this film tells the story of four young people locked in a brutal battle with the authorities to defend their way of life.

As the police response turns deadly, the protesters respond with violence of their own. Families turn against each other, and the city is brought to its knees, but the protesters feel they're fighting for their freedom and refuse to give in.

Holed up in a university campus, surrounded by police and with little response from the government, the protesters make their final stand. Meanwhile, Beijing is preparing a crackdown that will change the face of Hong Kong forever.

It will be up to a superstar panel to lead the viewers at home in their quest to discover who they are. Although the stars aren't judged on their voices, they'll still need to give their best performance – the audience's least favourite will be eliminated, before the panel try to guess their identity and unmask them.
