Expats - an Amazon Prime series starring Nicole Kidman - centres around the lives of three American women.

Set in 2014, it includes scenes from the "Umbrella Movement" - a city-wide protest calling for free elections in the city - that took place that year.

Protests have now all but disappeared from Hong Kong after Beijing cracked down using a controversial new law.

It is not clear whether the decision to not show the series comes from Hong Kong's authorities or Amazon Prime Video.
