Project Gutenberg - Trailer
Project Gutenberg is a criminal work written and directed by Felix Chong. This film is not really a confrontation of the good and bad, when the police force only plays a supporting role. And unlike many other Hong Kong gangster works, this is not a work that glorifies the gangster brotherhood. Project Gutenberg immerses the viewer in the practices of the company that manufactures counterfeit currency, which is led by the "Artist." The film is one of the few works that provides a comprehensive and systemic view of the counterfeit money manufacturing process, as well as the criminals' methods of operation. The film's plot revolves around Hong Kong police breaking up a counterfeit money mission and apprehending Lee Man, a key member of the counterfeit money line, as he flees to Thailand. According to Lee Man's testimony, police was on the lookout for Painter, the gang's leader who manufactured counterfeit currency. Despite the intense police chase, Painter's gang duped into purchasing money printing paper and robbed a truck carrying special ink in order to mass-produce counterfeit dollars that look like real money.
