ONE CHILD
December 5, 2014  | By David Bianculli

Sundance, 9:00 p.m. ET

 

MINISERIES PREMIERE: Another miniseries co-production by Sundance and the BBC, this two-night, four-hour drama (concluding tomorrow) stars Katie Leung as a woman suddenly confronting her past, a family she never knew, and a system of justice that’s literally foreign to her. It’s a story of clashing cultures: Leung’s Mei is of Chinese heritage, adopted at birth by a British man and his American wife, who learns as a young woman that her brother – a sibling she never knew she had – is on trial for murder back in China, facing execution. Mei returns to China, immersing herself in a very different and complex world – in and out of the courtroom. Costars include Elizabeth Perkins and Donald Sumpter.
