托比,生於英國電影世家,從小跟著父母在世界各地片場和明星堆裡打轉,70年代正值李小龍將東方獨有的功夫電影在西方世界引起巨大浪潮,托比從媽媽手中收到有關李小龍的書後就對這異國風奇幻動作片型著迷不已,從此和功夫片結下不解之緣。 這是一部透過一個西方功夫影迷托比的故事述說功夫電影的興衰,從西方來到東方電影圈追夢,功夫電影沒落後,到處搜購尋找被丟棄的功夫電影底片將之數位化,回到西方世界以自己的方式拯救這片武林,這些外國影迷從以前到現在是如何珍惜這批曾經在電影界也許是不入流,卻蔚為風潮的電影,影響了全世界許多影迷的人生,就像托比一樣。進而反思我們放任自己獨有影像藝術流失而不自覺。
Toby wars born in UK cinematic family, son of noted british director Ken Russell. In the 1970's, Bruce Lee brought the uniquely eastern kung fu movie genre to the West and started a wave of popular trend. Ever since Toby received books related to Bruce Lee from mom, he was fascinated and became a super Kungfu movie fan. This is a documentary about a western kid, kung fu movies fanatic, heading eastward to chase his Kungfu cinema dreams; en route, illustrates the rise and fall of kung movie epoque. Once the Kungfu movies heatwave ceased, Toby tries hard to collect these abandoned films all over the world and restores and digitizes them. There are a number of fans around the globe from past to now, whom treasure these movies more than ever, made me reflect our unknowingly laissez-faire attitude toward this unique eastern art form.
