| The Enigmatic Case |
Living up to its title, Johnnie To's directorial debut - one of the first Hong Kong films to be shot in China - is largely forgotten.
Following in the footsteps of fellow directors Tsui Hark and Patrick Tam, To's first outing is also a martial arts (wuxia) film, but his realistic style sets his film apart from the other special effects-heavy works.
Damian Lau stars as a wanted swordsman on the run for murder who knows the location of a hidden pot of gold.
