Written and directed by Sze Pak-Lam, Lai Siu-Kwan, and Lau Wing-Tai, the film centres around a juror on a high-profile case who is blackmailed into fixing the verdict after his daughter is kidnapped. The cast includes Nick Cheung, Elaine Jin, Zhang Han, Eddie Cheung, Babyjohn Choi, Kent Cheng, and Paul Chun Pui.

Synopsis: Hypnotherapist and single father Hui (Nick Cheung) is selected as a juror for the trial of a sensational murder case involving a wealthy family. On the final day of the trial, as the jury prepares for deliberation, Hui receives a phone call informing him that his daughter has been taken hostage. The mysterious voice on the phone orders Hui to hypnotize the other jurors and deliver a guilty verdict. To do so, Hui must somehow secretly hypnotize at least four jurors in the deliberation room without using any tools or revealing his hand. Meanwhile, his brother-in-law (Zhang Han), a former special forces officer, races to rescue his daughter.

‘Guilt By Design’ is available for pre-order now from YesAsia.com.
