A visually stunning gangster film set in the Asian community of São Paulo, Brazil. The film co-written and directed by Nelson Yu Lik-wai who's mostly known for his cinematography for Jia Zhang Ke's films. With an international cast, exotic location and potent story, the biggest problems are the script which is all over the place and poor editing that slows down the film. A new edit with a focus on the gangster story should resolve some problems. YRCinema's coverage of the AFI Fest 2008.
