"A modern day martial arts coming-of-age feel-good drama, Wushu
features rarely seen training of young martial artists in China. Set in
an actual 3,000 student strong martial arts school in a remote part of
Shandong, China, Wushu tells the story of Li Er - a talented teenage
sanda fighter (Chinese kickboxing) who falls in love with a beautiful
girl training in wushu (a martial arts form practiced by international
action star, Jet Li). In order to woo her, Li Er goes against his
coach’s desire to make him the provincial sanda champion, and takes up
wushu instead. Li Er struggles with losing his sanda champion status to
becoming a no body in wushu competition, while at the same time he
tries to get his girl to notice him and not getting kicked out of
school for his poor marks. Wushu will show real life martial arts,
starring talented young martial artists, in their actual stark yet
exotic location. The total budget for this beautiful and up lifting
fight film is US$1.5million."
