Across three nights we present the legendary Police Story trilogy! Featuring some of the most dangerous stunts ever performed on camera, these three films represent the pinnacle of Jackie Chan’s unique style of Hong Kong action filmmaking.

Demoted to traffic cop after the events of the first film, Chan Ka-Kui is reinstated to the detective unit when a deadly gang of explosive experts blow up a building and threaten to blow up more if their demands are not met.

Featuring yet more bravura stunt work, and even more injuries to its cast and crew, Police Story 2 is to this day considered one of the best action films ever made.

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.
