Never push a good man too far

Quan is a humble London businessman whose long-buried past erupts in a revenge-fueled vendetta when the only person left for him to love – his teenage daughter – dies in an Irish Republican Army car bombing. His relentless search to find the terrorists leads to a cat-and-mouse conflict with a British government official whose own past may hold the clues to the identities of the elusive killers.

Switzerland German (Deutsch)

Der demütige Restaurantbesitzer Quan hat in seiner Vergangenheit schon unendliches Leid ertragen müssen und hoffte in London alles hinter sich gelassen zu haben. Mit seiner Tochter Fan führt er ein glückliches Leben … bis diese bei einem Bombenattentat irischer Terroristen ums Leben kommt. Weil die Polizei auch nach Wochen noch keine Ermittlungsergebnisse präsentieren kann, macht er sich selbst auf die Suche nach Antworten und stößt dabei auf den irischen Politiker Liam Hennessy. Der hat dem Terror zwar öffentlich abgeschworen, doch Quan ist überzeugt, dass Hennessy die Namen der Täter kennt. Deswegen nimmt er ihn ins Visier, bedroht ihn selbst mit einer Bombe, um an die Namen der Täter zu kommen. Weil er nun selbst in Gefahr schwebt, schlägt Hennessy zurück. Es kommt zum erbitterten Duell der beiden Männer...
