Movie propaganda
Wang (Dahong Ni) is a miserable yet cunning noodle shop owner in a desert town in China. Feeling neglected, Wang's wife (Ni Yan) secretly goes out with Li (Xiao Shen-Yang), one of his employees. A timid man, Li reluctantly keeps the gun the landlady bought for "killing her husband later". However, not a single move they make escapes the boss's notice, and he decides to bribe patrol officer Zhang (Honglei Sun) to kill the illicit couple. It looks like a perfect plan: the affair will come to a cruel but satisfying end... or so he thinks, but the equally wicked Zhang has an agenda of his own that will lead to even more violence...
