Hong Kong protest scenes in 'Expats' not shown in city

HONG KONG: A new television limited series starring Nicole Kidman and featuring scenes of Hong Kong's pro-democracy protests debuted on Amazon Prime Video on Friday, but could not be accessed in the Chinese city where it was partly filmed.

'Expats' revolves around the lives of three American women — including a protagonist played by Kidman, who is also an executive producer — in the former United Kingdom colony in 2014, Amazon said. Among the cast is Filipino actor Ruby Ruiz, who plays a nanny working for Kidman's character.
