On the other side of the political coin: Among the more surprising aspects of this earnest coming-of-age film cum sports movie is its makers looking to have gone out of their way to feature scenes in which a key character is seen on a street in Admiralty "occupied" by tents and pedestrians and make it so that this admirable offering's pragmatic yet inspirational message extolling the importance of taking half a step forward (rather than no step at all) can come across as applying to the Umbrella Movement as well as individual lives. At the same time though, it's true enough that Weeds on Fire is mainly set in 1984 (seven years before its 25-year-old helmer was born!) rather than 2014 -- and largely focuses on personal rather than political dramas.
