Synposis
Undercover Chinese cop Xin (newcomer Gu Shangwei), is on a secret international mission when a surprise raid puts him in a remote Cambodian jungle prison that plays by its own rules.Ruthless warden (Vithaya Pansringarm of “Only God Forgives”) sells prisoners as human prey for rich hunters looking for thrills in the jungle.
After years of hunting down ruthless criminals, Xin suddenly finds himself running for his life. If Xin manages to survive this sadistic game, he'll walk out of the jungle the same way he came in: as a free man. If Xin fails, he's just another hunting trophy.
Jimmy Henderson's film, which screened at Busan International Film Festival, BFI London Film Festival and Fantasia Film Festival, will open in virtual theaters starting August 21 and will released on all major VOD platforms shortly after, on August 25.
