## About

After his family is massacred by Qing soldiers, a young revolutionary escapes to the legendary Shaolin Temple, where he begins an arduous journey through its 35 training chambers, each devoted to mastering a different martial arts discipline. Director Lau Kar-leung transforms the training process itself into the heart of the film, creating one of the most influential kung fu classics ever made. Anchored by Chia-Hui Liu’s (known as Gordon Liu) commanding screen presence, The 36th Chamber of Shaolin remains a thrilling blend of discipline, action and cinematic invention.
