AS THE LIGHT GOES OUT<\/strong>
\n\u6551\u706b\u82f1\u96c4 | DEREK KWOK, 2014
\nHONG KONG\/CHINA | CANTONESE AND MANDARIN WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES | FORMAT: DCP | 116 MINUTES
\nNorth American Premiere<\/p>\n

This is Hong Kong\u2019s Year of the Man Movie, and no movie is manlier than this one from director Derek Kwok (Gallants, Journey to the West) because it\u2019s all about everyone\u2019s favorite superhero: firefighters. Hong Kong stars Simon Yam, Shawn Yue, Nic Tse, and Hu Jun (Firestorm, Drug War) play a squad of firefighters trapped in a testosterone-fueled soap opera. They used to be BFFs, but their careers have gone in different directions and everyone\u2019s wallowing in Man Angst. Then, on the \u201chottest Christmas Eve in Hong Kong,\u201d a power-plant explosion plunges the city into darkness and our feuding firefighters have to put their problems on the back burner and battle the blaze. Full of stoic heroics and men striding manfully into burning buildings to rescue innocent victims, this is uncut, hardcore firefighter porn full of epic action and third-degree-burn-inducing stunts. If you aren\u2019t wiping away Man Tears by the end of this movie, then it\u2019s only because you\u2019re running out of the theater to file your application to join the fire department. Part of HONG KONG FOREVER! Presented with the support of Hong Kong Economic and Trade Office New York.<\/p>\n
