Escape from the Edge: 46 Episodes Free

The compound sells people in three ways: labour, ransom, and bodies. Xiaohua learns the yard the way a new prisoner learns a cell block—who eats first, who carries the keys, which door opens toward the road and which one opens into a pit. When the man who runs the compound finds out whose daughter she is, his face changes, and the change is what finally makes escape possible. Forty-six episodes, free on Palmbox. Twenty-five years ago a woman went into labour on a mountain road, gave birth, and died before morning. The baby was found by a villager passing through who had no name to give her, so she called her Chen Xiaohua. Now Xiaohua is grown, her brother has been missing for five years, and a recruiter on a phone promises her a job across the border that pays four times what the county pays. She takes her sister-in-law, the local boy who has been in love with her since they were eleven, and two neighbours. They walk into a compound that has a wall, a quota, and a cremation furnace nobody talks about.
