His appeal went viral on the social media, with the majority condemning the attack.

Producer Mario Philip Azzopardi said this was a production which was addressed directly to Maltese society, dealing with a current dilemma which it was confronted with.

The cast includes Ray Calleja, Clare Aguis, Roderick Vassallo, Marilú Vella, Sharon Bezzina and Peppi Azzopardi.
