Opening Film of the 62nd Venice International Film Festival
In the early 1660’s, the Manchurians took over the sovereignty of China and established the Qing Dynasty. With many pro-nationalistic revolts, the newly set-up government immediately imposed a band on the study and practice of the martial arts. Fire-wind, a military official from the previous dynasty, ravages and ranges across Northwestern China with his next goal to attack the final frontier – the intransigent and hold-out town known as Martial Village. He convinces two young people from the village to travel with him to Mount Heaven in order to seek help from Master Shadow-Glow, a hermit who is a master of swords and leads a group of disciples with unimaginable swordsmanship. Master Shadow-Glow agrees to help, and orders four of his best disciples to go. Representing heroism and goodness at its finest, they come to be known as the SEVEN SWORDS and there heroic journey begins.
