Summary
Inspired by the legendary 1964 closed-door duel between a young Bruce Lee and Shaolin master Wong Jack Man in San Francisco, the film follows the philosophical and physical clash between Lee's flashy, modern approach to kung fu and Wong's traditional discipline. A young student caught between the two masters draws them into a confrontation with Chinatown's criminal underworld.
