In “A Man”, Police Inspector Shek reports his corrupt colleagues, but it is his own integrity which comes under investigation, Joyce's implication that being honest to oneself can extract a high price. Also characteristic of her ICAC scripts is that they're non-judgmental and the protagonists have distinct personalities. Unfortunately, it was banned by the authorities until its initial release at the Hong Kong International Film Festival in 1999.
