In the neon-lit underworld of Hong Kong, rival gangs wage war over a lucrative arms-smuggling operation. When his partner is killed in a bloody shootout at a teahouse, hard-boiled detective “Tequila” Yuen is determined to dismantle the syndicate at any cost. His quest leads him to an unlikely ally: a ruthless young hitman working secretly undercover within the criminal hierarchy. As loyalties blur and the violence escalates, the two men are forced into a fragile alliance that leads to one of the most daring action finales ever captured on film.
