Powerful women form a Christmas Special Force
What makes them strong yet gentle?
In a small town in the arctic region of Siberia, winter temperatures drop to 70 degrees below freezing. A group of Hong Kong women, coming from different backgrounds, pledge to travel there to deliver Christmas presents to the town’s inhabitants. To withstand such extreme weather, they must receive training taxing both their physique and determination. What motivates these women, making them so impassioned?
Before the Christmas season, HKRep Artistic Director Poon Wai Sum pens a brand-new script The Absolute Task specifically to highlight the company’s actresses. The Special Force will deliver unusual Christmas presents to the audience, at the same time inviting us all to look deep into our hearts.
