Director: Wellson Chin
Actors: Sandra Kwan Yue Ng, Sibelle Hu, Kara Ying Hung Wai
PlotA special paramilitary police unit composed solely of women embarks on a mission to safeguard a high-profile film crew that's shooting a movie on location in Hong Kong. Among them, there's Gao, the tough and disciplined leader; May, a sprightly new recruit eager to prove herself; and Amy, the tech-savvy yet clumsy member who often finds herself in humorous predicaments. Tensions and camaraderie develop among the group as they train intensively to uphold their duty while facing the unique challenges of a male-dominated field. The inclusion of a male officer, Monkey, adds a layer of comic friction and subtle rivalry as he tries to integrate with the team.
As the operation proceeds, the unit must protect the film crew from a series of escalating incidents that suggest more sinister undertakings than anticipated. Behind the glitz of the movie production, they uncover clues hinting at criminal threats targeting the crew and possibly tying back to a larger conspiracy. Navigating through rivalry, developing friendships, and moments of levity, the women use their specialized skills to investigate the conspiracy. The plot thickens as the unit encounters unexpected obstacles requiring them to rely on each other’s strengths to diffuse dangers. Complex dynamics within the team evolve as they balance personal stakes with professional obligations, setting the stage for intense confrontations and demanding physical challenges—all of which test their mettle as they strive to thwart those threatening their mission.
