Indomnia Releasing has released the official US trailer for Chinese and Hong Kong action film Fire of Conscience.
Investigating the death of a prostitute, burned-out detective Man Fong (Leon Lai) teams with yuppie narcotics cop Kee Siu-kwan (Richie Ren), who is looking for a mobile phone stolen from a dead colleague. As both get drawn into a complex case involving a Mainland bomber (Wang Baoqiang) and possible high-level police corruption – and one of Man’s team, Cheung-on (Liu Kai-chi), seems implicated in the prostitute’s murder by a DNA sample – Man begins to suspect Kee is not all he appears.
Here’s the official plot synopsis for Fire of Conscience:
Esteemed investigator Captain Manfred (Leon Lai, Bodyguards and Assassins) is at a crossroads in life when he’s assigned to the case of a lethal car accident and the death of a prostitute. Working with him is aggressive Inspector Kee, who’s determined to rise in the fast-paced world of Hong Kong law enforcement. Opposites in every way, Manfred finds himself in the unexpected position of defending his partner when he’s linked to the crimes, and he’s soon swept up into a shadowy world of dirty politics, graphic murders and dangerous secrets. Co-starring Vivian Hsu and Michelle Ye, it’s a daring and explosive entry in the “Asia noir”s genre with a no-holds-barred fight to the finish that will take your breath away.
The film was directed by Dante Lam (The Beast Stalker).
Produced with real verve and skill, Fire of Conscience arrives on DVD and VOD October 25! Pre-order the film HERE.
