The Hedwig Tam Sin Yin, Locker Lam Ka Hei, Kaki Shum, Renci Yeung Sz Wing, Ben Yuen Fu Wah and Alan Yeung Wai Lun starred SMASHING FRANK (DOH POR FAT LAN HAK) has been selected for the 22nd Asian Summer Film Festival in Spain and represented Hong Kong films in competition.

The film tells the story of the Tam Si Yin played "Kei Yuet", who faced the powerlessness of joining the society, and suddenly had a whim. Instead of formally looking for a job and being a social slave, she might as well control her own destiny, "do the world" in her own way, and create her own career; the idea she comes up with like committing crimes while uploading videos to the internet, creating a response and becomes a "robbery influencer". Kei Yuet is arrested for assault, and when the community service order is executed she meets fellow first time offender Tao Chun (played by Kaki Sham), and Hugo (played by Lam Ka Hei), Kei Yuet's childhood sweetheart. The three form the team "Frank" to rob the rich.

Kei Yuet is the leader of Frank. Tam Sin Yin describes the character as cynical but a little calm. Many things upsets her, especially hypocritical and unfair things. "Something happened to Kei Yuet's friend with a rich man, which makes her even more hateful to the rich. She feels that the world is very unfair. She is reckless and impulsive, but she is willing to act for herself and the people she loves, and then seek justice.

Lam Ka Hei said, "The character Hugo is a drug dealer, has a playful and naughty personality. After being arrested, he and Kei Yuet received a community service order. Hugo is in love with Kei Yuet, but gets mixed signals from her." Kaki Sham plays Tao Chun, who is a truck driver on the surface, but is actually a small time hood who specializes in helping his partner take candid photos. He said, "My character is more timid and cowardly. From a well-off family, he has been raised as a rule-abiding person since he was a child. Never taking a misstep, he strictly follows the rules and tends to be conservative and introverted."
