Here’s a fantastically wild trailer for the upcoming heavy metal kung-fu comedy The Invisible Fight. The movie looks like a freaking fun flick that king-fu fans are going to enjoy!

The Invisible Fight is “a satirical take on the martial arts film, paying tribute to the genre’s Chinese wuxia roots through a Northern European story.” In the movie, “a guard on the Soviet-Chinese border survives a deadly attack but then decides to become a monk and must continually prove along the way that he’s capable of becoming the enlightened man he set out to be.”

The synopsis reads: “USSR-China border, 1973: The young soldier Rafael is on guard duty when the border falls under attack from flying Chinese kung fu warriors, leaving him the sole survivor. Utterly fascinated by the long-haired martial artists who easily dispatched his fellow guards, all while blasting forbidden Black Sabbath music from their portable radio, Rafael is struck by a revelation: he too wants to be a kung fu warrior. Looking for mentorship with few options, faith leads Rafael to seek martial arts teachers at one of the unlikeliest places: the local Eastern Orthodox monastery, where monks begin his training. With a skeptical mother, a rival monk, and a budding love interest pulling him in different directions, he finds his journey to unlock the greatest martial art of all – the almighty power of humility – is long and full of kick-ass adventures…”

The Estonian film was written and directed by Rainer Sarnet (November), and it made its world premiere at the Locarno Film Festival and also screened at Fantastic Fest and Sitges. Kino Lorber picked up the North American distribution right to the film and is lining up a theatrical, digital, and home video release in 2024.

Wendy Lidell, SVP of Theatrical Distribution and Acquisitions for Kino Lorber said in a statement: “Delightfully inventive and riotously funny, The Invisible Fight makes it clear that the joy of kung fu cinema is celebrated worldwide, even as far as Estonia. We couldn’t be more thrilled to bring this wildly entertaining take on the genre to American audiences.”
