EnglishLuckless Ping has no idea what lies waiting around the corner when he accepts a checkout job at a 24-hour shop. Greeted by an annoying boss and his nice co-worker Marbel, with whom he conducts all kinds of mischief, his misfortune begins with the first customer – a police officer with digestive problems who is in a rush to get to the loo. What comes next is a hot cheerleader, a grandfather looking for a sandwich and a pair of scissors, and a suicide bomber who just wants to blow everything to smithereens… Absurd, loopy, exceedingly brutal, hilarious and visually stimulating – everything we love about Hong Kong cinema. ROBBERY is a manic head-wrecker and a completely incidental scathing commentary on the state of a city.
