A toast to the exploited!
A Hong Kong martial arts movie redubbed by situationist René Viénet. The narrative focuses on a conflict between proletarians and bureaucrats within state capitalism. The proletarians enlist their grasp of dialectics in the fight against their oppressors, while the bureaucrats defend themselves using a combination of co-optation and violence.
