English title: Project A.
Synopsis: In XIX-century Hong Kong, the problem of piracy begins to affect the local economy; there is a conflict between the city police and the navy about who gets government money. A series of attacks destroys the naval fleet, and their crew is reassigned to the city police. One pirate corrupts several people in the force so he can obtain rifles.
Appraisal: Relentless, hysterical, childishly convoluted, brilliant at times, entertaining throughout.
