Storyline
Plot Summary |
In Bangkok, the young Kham was raised by his father in the jungle with elephants as members of their family. When his old elephant and the baby Kern are stolen by criminals, Kham finds that the animals were sent to Sidney. He travels to Australia, where he locates the baby elephant in a restaurant owned by the evil Madame Rose, the leader of an international Thai mafia. With the support of the efficient Thai sergeant Mark, who was involved in a conspiracy, Kham fights to rescue the animal from the mobsters. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil |

Trivia | Contains one of the longest no-cut fight scenes in movie history: the fight up floor after floor lasted four-plus minutes. See more » |
Goofs | In the long-take brothel fight, Kham knocks a thug's head into a frame and glass shatters. However, the shattering glass is a CG effect and the reflection on the glass is still there. (This is due to an on-set mistake when the prop failed to break) See more » |
