Panasonic proudly sponsors "Le Fils"

When a marriage breaks up, a happy family is shattered. An anxious son becomes listless, his psychological troubles compounding still further. Seeing his original family structure disintegrating, he cannot fit into a new mode of being. Troubled that no one in the family understands him, he hides behind lies, sliding even closer to the point of no return…

Le Fils is written by renowned French playwright Florian Zeller, the final installment of his “family trilogy”. The script is filled with strong and sincere emotions delineating the hardship experienced by estranged families; it was nominated for the France’s Crystal Globe Award and made into a 2022 film. The HKRep, after the premiere and two re-runs of Le Père, brings this story of familial bonds to the stage directed by HKRep Assistant Artistic Director Yau Ting Fai, laying bare to the audiences the difficulties of reuniting broken lives and of intimacy plagued by estrangement.
