An international award-winning documentary maker has told FRANCE 24 that his expulsion from Hong Kong proves that the city is no longer what it was. Antoine Védeilhé has been covering Hong Kong for years and was aiming to make a documentary about how life has changed there under Chinese rule.

He carried on making his documentary by using secret filming and speaking to dissidents abroad. The film "Hong Kong ne répond plus" or "Hong Kong Doesn't Answer Anymore" is being shown on French television this weekend. He spoke to us in Perspective.
