Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In
TWILIGHT OF THE WARRIORS: WALLED IN
Years after a bloody turf war in Hong Kong's underworld, Kowloon Walled City is a lawless haven for gangs and refugees. When a skilled fighter angers the most feared Triad boss, a bounty is placed on his head, despite his connections to the enclave's leader. The pursuit violates a fragile truce, reigniting old grudges and decades of tension, leading to a bloody boiling point.
Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In is nonstop action of the highest order. The film had its world premiere at the Midnight Screenings section in Cannes 2024 and was one of the year's biggest successes – both internationally and in its native Hong Kong, where it's become the biggest box office hit in history. Even the most critical of critics were floored by its action choreography and unique setting, and Twilight of the Warriors has been an audience favorite all over the world, winning nine statues at the Hong Kong Film Awards, including best picture.
