Wrong place, wrong time

Warning: Spoilers
A somewhat crude, amateur-made action movie with oriental motifs. Actually, in view of this aspect, which in its own way exploits the principle "it's so bad that in some places it's good", it stands out in its own way from the background of other countless and faceless brothers in the genre, although certain borrowings from the same "Fanat" (1989) suggest themselves. Martial arts master Kim In Ho teaches at his own school, but finds himself caught between two fires. On the one hand late Soviet morals in relation to such training still remain rather ambiguous. On the other hand local criminals are interested in training their "infantry" in the right direction, but they are refused, and the adoption of his younger brother, independent beyond his years, does not help them. According to the laws of the genre, the latter dies as a result of a spontaneous showdown and the hero, once impregnable as a rock, goes on the warpath.
