What begins as a reckless dare spirals into a vortex of blackmail, violence, and explosive chaos.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
Tsui Hark crafts a raw, quasi-documentary snapshot of Hong Kong youth on the edge. His camera observes without judgment, letting grimy streets, vacant stares, and absurd violence speak a language of nihilism.
This is for viewers prepared for a harsh, almost tactile descent into anarchy. It offers no solutions, only the sensation of a fuse burning within a city's soul. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Tsui Hark

Late at night in a sparse room, with a sense of unease.
