Drama students of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts (HKAPA) will stage French playwright Roger Vitrac's last work, My Father's Sword.

The story begins in 1910 in a small town in the south of France. A boy called Simon is helpless as he watches his family fall apart. His father gambles away all his possessions while his mother wants to run off with a young man.
