Kineska povijesna borilačka drama redatelja i scenarista Haofenga Xua. Xu-u je ovo debitantki film,  te je u kini inače poznat kao pisac, poznavatelj boričakih vještina i scenarist koji je između ostaloga napisao i scenarij za nadolazeći borilački film  Kar Wai Wonga, The Grand Master. The Sword Identity je do sada bio prikazivan na mnogobrojnim filmskim festivalima kao npr. Venice International Film Festivalu, Toronto International Film Festivalu, Vancouver International Film Festivalu, itd. Kritika film opisuje kao veoma old school uradak, i netipičan borilački film koji se više bavi Kineskom kulturom i filozofijom nego prikazom samim borbi, iako niti toga ne nedostaje. Službena Kineska premijera je zakazana za 24. veljače 2012., dok će u Hong Kongu biti prikazan u ožujku 2012.

RADNJA

Once upon a time in the Southern Chinese city of Guancheng, there lived four families, each of them faithful keepers of martial arts. Anyone who wanted to establish a new sect, or a new form of kung fu, had to fight his way through the family’s gates. But when Liang Henlu requests a competition, he is rejected and driven out of town, his strange new weapon mistaken for a Japanese sword and therefore forbidden by purist Chinese masters as a foreign fighting device. Liang is taken for a Japanese pirate and forced to hide in a boat filled with gypsy dancers. After a series of fights prove Liang’s sword invincible, the Guancheng masters start to question their assumptions regarding the weapon’s origins. They finally recognize that it is none other than the famous sword called “Made in China” (modeled on a Japanese weapon), which the celebrated General Qi used in his glorious defeat of the Japanese invasion.
