Across three nights we present the legendary Police Story trilogy! Featuring some of the most dangerous stunts ever performed on camera, representing the pinnacle of Jackie Chan’s unique style of Hong Kong action filmmaking.
Considered by Jackie Chan himself to be his best film in terms of pure action, Police Story stars Chan as “super cop” Chan Ka-Kui, who goes up against a notorious crime lord in a series of escalating set-pieces that resulted in many of Jackie’s stunt team being hospitalised.
Screening as part of Electric Shadows: Chinese Film Festival and Art of Action, a UK-wide film season supported by National Lottery and BFI Film Audience Network.
Now in its 3rd edition, Electric Shadows (25 Nov -1 Dec) is an annual Chinese festival in Leicester, co-presented by De Montfort University’s Confucius Institute, the School of Humanities and Performing Arts and NGO UK-China Film Collab.
