Programme Title

Hong Kong City Hall Venue Partnership Scheme: “Modern Wuxia: To Turn, To Be”

Description

A warrior’s shadow shimmers amidst skyscrapers
An urban legend about chivalry and justice

The martial arts novelist’s world might have faded away, but neon lights of our reality linger.

At age 53, our protagonist quits his job and goes to Songshan to study martial arts for three whole years. After his return, equipped with physical skills totally out of sync with the times, he tries his best to exercise chivalry in a concrete jungle. He uses French fries as darts, assembles cardboard for a couch, gives his best shot as a loner in the martial arts world countering jeers and rejections. In the real world, there are no villains to be vanquished, only life’s bone-crushing pressures. Yet he stubbornly resists them all, vowing to etch out what “chivalry” means in our material, mundane world.

This is a fable for adults and a heroic epic about a loser. Listen to the winds, perhaps you can still catch an echo of the warrior’s cry.
