Accident

This clever thriller from Hong Kong proves the Asian Cinema has still fresh and compelling stories to offer. The film about a group of criminals who stage elaborate accidents to commit murder. After one of team is killed during an assignment, suspicion and paranoia derails the team. The high concept promise could have been explored more in depth but makes for an engaging film that will inspire remakes abroad. Director Cheang Pou-Soi and his talented cast and crew deliver an original and unique film that's fresh and intriguing. YRCinema's coverage of the Toronto International Film Festival.
