Heiße Ware aus Hong Kong

Made for German TV documentary about the early craze of Hong Kong Martial Arts Cinema. While critical on the subject and not too well informed, it nevertheless offers some interesting insights into the Hong Kong film industry of that days.

Directed by Georges Paruvanani, Heiße Ware aus Hong Kong leans on a strong ensemble — David Chiang Da-Wei, Lily Ho, Lily Li — 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 documentary titles of 1973.
