The Stuntman 1983

The Stuntman

Directed by Wong Shu-Tong

A group of young thrill-seeking stunt performers form a stunt team. Coming from different backgrounds and levels of education, they each approach stunt work differently. Some rely on technical knowledge and experience, while others risk their lives purely through courage. As the team gains experience, they grow both in skill and in their understanding of the dangers of their profession. Over time, personal relationships, family responsibilities, and tragedy force the members to reconsider their futures. Ultimately, the team’s best stuntman must face a final major challenge before saying farewell to the dangerous career that once defined his life.
