Set in the late Ming Dynasty, Brotherhood of Blades is the story of three close friends who serve as Jinyiwei guards. They are dispatched by a palace eunuch to hunt down Wei Zhongxian, a politician who has been forced to resign from his influential post and exiled from Beijing. The Jinyiwei brothers return successfully from their quest, only to find that their task is but the beginning of a strange conspiracy. © Pinnacle Films 2012 (Original Title: Brotherhood of Blades)
