Synopsis by Andrea LeVasseur

Hong Kong filmmaker Allen Lan directs the martial arts-action film Flying Dragon, Leaping Tiger, which, despite its similar title and sharing some of the same actors, has nothing to do with Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Set during the Ming dynasty, the story involves horse thief Luk Ching-Yang (Sammo Hung) and his wife Liu Lu-Yian (Cheng Pei-Pei). After Luk was betrayed by his brother Kiu Hung (Tsui Goh), Lu-Yian left him. They reunite 20 years later, along with Liu Lu-Yian's adopted daughter Liu Wan-Long (Jade Leung) and the young warrior Pak Suk-Fu (Louis Fan), in order to seek revenge.
