Nathan Law rose to prominence a decade ago as one of the student leaders of the pro-democracy protests in Hong Kong known as the Umbrella Movement. He went on to become one of the semi-autonomous Chinese region's youngest legislators... and not long after, one of its most wanted men.

Law joins Piya Chattopadhyay to explore his unlikely journey to activism, and what he makes of the prospects for democracy in Hong Kong now, after recent national security laws have further restricted rights.
