St. Jude Square is a neighborhood living in fear and despair. The dueling gangs of local kingpins Dash and Antuan terrorize the streets and the citizens live without a shred of hope... until mysterious stranger Ryan Hong (Cung Le) arrives in town. He begins to play one gang against the other using his unparalleled martial arts skills, and by calling on the teachings of his brilliant mentor Tiano (Jean-Claude Van Damme) to find the strength to battle back. However, just as he begins to bring the community under control, Hong is confronted by Mr. V, the town's ruthless and corrupt police chief. At first Mr. V is impressed by Hong's skill, but soon sees Hong as a threat to his regime, and the two warriors are locked in a head-to-head battle, pitting the fear and corruption of Mr. V's regime versus the new beginning Hong represents for the people of St. Jude Square.。30多年前，湖南娄底有一群中青年农民为了生活，挑着被盖、凉席和简单的日常用品、乘火车、搭汽车，然后长途步行跋涉，来到了湘赣交界的罗宵山脉，这里是茫茫无边的林海，他们用最原始的方式在这里砍树、拖木、放木排。小叶也是这个“盲流”中的一员，当年他才18岁，中学毕业就跟随着这批大叔大哥来到这深山老林中“讨生活”。 这里远离人群，与世隔绝；这里没有尊卑长幼，没有女人，更没有爱情。白天干活，晚上赌钱，周而复始，枯燥得就像山溪边的水车吱吱呀呀，从不变调。 后来来了两个女人，一个是做饭的，一个是量方的。这两个人的到来像油锅里倒进一瓢凉水顿时炸开了锅。从此，他们的生活波澜起伏，杂色斑烂，他们的行为真率，荒唐、怪诞，令人啼笑皆非。扭曲的人性暴露无遗，真诚、善良和同情在人性的释放中充分地彰显出来。 美丽和善良，真诚和同情，战胜一切，他们的生存逐渐充满阳光。。
