School on Fire

A young schoolgirl, Yuen Fong becomes caught in a tragic stranglehold of triad activity after she testifies in court over a triad beating. When this news reaches the triad leader Brother Smart, Yuen Fong must pay him protection money for what she has done as events begin to escalate.

My take

A gripping 1988 thriller where institutional chaos erupts into literal and metaphorical flames, capturing the tension of authority collapsing under pressure. Arlo would appreciate the raw, unfiltered look at systems breaking down and people pushed to their limits.
