Anyone who wanted to establish a new school, or a new form of kung fu, had to fight his way through the family’s gates. Two swordsmen enter the city to request a competition and start their own school, their strange new weapons are mistaken for Japanese swords and therefore forbidden by purist Chinese masters as a foreign fighting device. They are accused of being Japanese pirates by the masters of the martial arts schools. Facing arrest, the swordsmen must prove the value of swordsmanship by defeating the masters and a living legend who has returned from exile in the mountains.   Festival Screenings   Orizzonti - Venice International Film Festival 2011 Discovery - Toronto International Film Festival 2011 Dragons & Tigers - Vancouver International Film Festival 2011       Reset
