Released in 1983, 掌門人 is an action and komödie film directed by Lau Kar-leung, running about 93 minutes.

What it’s about. Wong Hsia Yuan is an old-fashioned martial arts master who's so behind the times that he'd rather his school be destroyed than change its ways. He may get his wish, thanks to the young, beautiful, intelligent Chan Mei Ling, who arrives from the states to open a new branch of the school. Armed with an unfamiliar, modern way of thinking, Mei Ling goes about recruiting new students in strange, and sometimes questionably legal ways. Yuan is furious, but when the local triads enter the picture, the two put their differences aside to take back the neighborhood.

Who’s in it. 掌門人 stars Lau Kar-leung as Wang Hsieh Yun, Kara Hui Ying-Hung as Chan Mei Ling, Gordon Liu Chia-Hui as Lee Hon Man and Wong Yu as Ah Yung/Ah Wing, among others.
