Marcus Ray (Van Damme) lives the good life in Hong Kong working as a sales representative for V SlX Jeans. As the drama and pageantry of the 1997 handover of Hong Kong from British to Chinese rule unfolds, Ray gets wind of a terrifying conspiracy – Russian Mafia scheme to bring a deadly secret technology – microbombs – to the worldwide terrorist black market. Aware of the devastation an act like this might cause, special security police for the handover, Ling Ho (Carmen Lee) and Lieutenant Han (Michael Fitzgerald Wong), do their best to keep a lid on any potential national disasters.
