Frankfurt am Main
In the organizer's words:
Blades of the Guardians
A legend finally makes its way to the Fantasy Filmfest! As a director, Yuen Woo-ping shaped Hong Kong martial arts cinema like no other; as the stunt choreographer for the MATRIX trilogy and KILL BILL: VOL. 1 & 2, he revolutionized Hollywood. Even in his eighties, he effortlessly leaves the competition in the dust, backed by superstar support from Tony Leung and Jet Li. It’s going to be visually spectacular!
The empire is on the verge of collapse. The people suffer under a despotic emperor and corrupt officials, while clans engage in bloody skirmishes. In this time of instability, the rebel leader Zhishilang rises to restore peace and happiness. Right in the middle of this chaos: the bounty hunter Dao Ma, a former elite imperial guard with a few scores to settle. Everything is building up to a decisive battle—and a massive amount of overtime for Yuen’s stunt team!
