About In China They Eat Dogs
Arvid is an ordinary bank clerk who lives a rather unassuming life with his dear girlfriend. But his life is turned completely upside down when he bravely manages to avert a robbery against the bank where he works.
Directed by Lasse Spang Olsen, In China They Eat Dogs leans on a strong ensemble — Kim Bodnia, Dejan Čukić, Nikolaj Lie Kaas — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1999.
