A Hong Kong cinema classic that would've inspired Tarantino's early work, Long Arm of the Law (1984) and Long Arm of the Law Part 2 (1987) sees a gang members laying low in the aftermath of a failed jewellery store robbery.

Return to the mean streets of the 1980s for a pair of ghetto real crime dramas that redefined Hong Kong cop movies. Based on real events in the then Crown Colony, the ‘Long Arm of the Law’ films depict the threat posed by former Mainland Chinese soldiers crossing the border to stage hyper-violent crimes in broad daylight.

These films are a stunning blend of cinema verité with bone-crunching Hong Kong stunt sequences. ‘Long Arm of the Law 1 & 2’ left local audiences shell-shocked when first released, and still retains its raw impact today. Don’t miss the chance to see a double bill torn from the most savage era in reel and real Hong Kong history!
