Five anarchist agitators plot and carry out acts of rebellion against the Japanese in occupied Shanghai circa 1924. Garnering the Audience Choice Award at San JoseÕs Cinequest, a constant stream of assassination and sabotage unfurl in this stylish and well-choreographed bullet ballet as the five protagonists repeatedly risk their lives to drive out the invaders and liberate the city. Shanghai is nostalgically captured in glowing production design and cinematography. Sophisticated and passionate, this groundbreaking Korean Chinese co-production is heralded as a new brand of filmmaking. Directed by Yu Young-Shik. With Jang Dong-Gun, Jung Joon-Ho, Kim Sang-Joong, Lee Bum-Soo, Kim In-Kwon.
