CrimeMystery

In 1910, Hong Kong, under the rule of the British Empire, is a prosperous and bustling city, but, hidden in the shadows of its many narrow streets, the hideous members of the Red Dragon gang, a branch of the evil Chinese secret society of the Tongs, lurk and murder those who oppose to their tyranny, which thrives on vice, crime and the fear of the weakest.

VIBE

A grim, shadowy descent into Hong Kong's underworld. Expect brutal violence and a pervasive sense of dread as a sinister secret society tightens its grip. This is raw, unflinching crime cinema.
