Young and Dangerous: The Prequel

A young Chan Ho-nam steps off the school bus, his uniform crisp. The streets of Mong Kok, however, demand a different education. This 1998 crime drama traces the brutal, formative years before the legendary triad brotherhood was forged. Loyalty is tested with fists and knives, friendships are cemented in back alleys, and every choice carves a path toward an inevitable, violent destiny. Witness the raw origin story of a Hong Kong cinema icon, where becoming a man means learning the rules of the street.
