(Wong Fei Hung)

by TSUI Hark

83206748_o

1875, China is changing and, under the influence of Western inventions and traditions, it is also opening up to new commercial practices that promote firearms imports and slave-trading. Wong Fei-hung, a master of martial arts and Chinese medicine, is concerned by these changes and their consequences. At the head of a local militia, he tries to preserve what is left of peace and stability in this great upheaval of values. Tsui Hark’s cult film, Once Upon a Time in China, also launched the international career of Jet Li.
