<br/><br/> It is 1987 and three years since Britain signed the Joint <br/>       Declaration agreeing to hand over its last colony, Hong <br/>       Kong, to China in 1997. With that declaration comes the <br/>       promise that the city will remain unchanged for fifty <br/>       years. But upheaval is already happening in Diamond Hill. <br/>       Once the 'Hollywood of the Orient,' it is now a shanty <br/>       town and an eyesore right in the middle of a glitzy <br/>       financial hub. Buddha, a recovering heroin addict, returns<br/>       home to find the shabby neighborhood being bulldozed to <br/>       make room for gleaming towers. Buddhist nuns, drug gangs, <br/>       property developers, the government and foreign powers <br/>       each have itchy palms, and all want a piece of Diamond <br/>       Hill.
