Overview

In late 19th-century Canton, legendary hero Wong Fei-Hung battles foreign forces' (English, French and American) plundering of China. When Aunt Yee returns from America totally westernised, Wong assumes the role of protector.

As violence escalates, even Aunt Yee has to question her new western ideals, but is it possible to fight guns with Kung Fu?
