Shout! Studios and GKIDS present HONG KONG CINEMA CLASSICS (HKCC), a retrospective of essential titles produced in the creative epicenter of Hong Kong, newly scanned in 4K and restored from original camera elements. Featuring works from directors John Woo, Tsui Hark, Ringo Lam, and Ching Siu-tung, these stories of cops and criminals, Chinese opera, and supernatural forces showcase one of the most explosively inventive eras in modern filmmaking.
In 1967, on the way to the wedding of a friend, a young man is accosted by a local gang member. Later, the three friends administer justice, in the process of which the gang member is killed, so they leave Hong Kong to avoid the police and the gang. They run black market supplies to Saigon and get embroiled in the war, being arrested as Viet Cong, then later captured by the Viet Cong, and find that their friendship is tested to the limits as they try to escape.
