When a group of troublemakers bump into a man such as Big Hand Nick, you know it will be hard for them to escape their fate!

There are no heroes in this 25-minute long action movie, but only one simple man, Big Hand Nick, who refuses to succumb to oppression, whether it’s by the good or the bad guys.

Stamas Brothers’ unconventional story is pure comedy; the well-edited action shots, no short of spinning kicks, falls and throws, are really entertaining to watch, and the lack of Foley sounds makes the fight scenes look surreal, almost like a parody or a delightful and fascinating dance to the rhythmic and engaging music.

But if Big Hand Nick isn’t the hero nor the villain of the story, who is he? Perhaps he’s just one of us, struggling to find balance between the good and the bad in our lives made of compromise and deception? 

Or maybe the chess metaphor says it all: if life can only move forward, sacrificing the pawns is just an inevitable consequence of living.

Being shot over a span of 20 years, this film is a potpourri of friendship, fun, dedication and martial arts. A shout out to the fighters, who brought something really special to this film!
