Synopsis: In 1973, a young Soviet soldier named Rafael is the only survivor of kung fu assassins attacking the Chinese-USSR border. Amazed at how these martial artists could easily vanquish his fellow soldiers, Rafael has an epiphany: he must also become a kung fu warrior! His search for martial arts mentorship leads him to the most unlikely of places: an Eastern Orthodox monastery, where black-clad monks will train him. Struggling against a rival monk, and with a budding love interest, Rafael embarks on a long, winding, utterly zany journey. The strangest fun you will have in a cinema this year! As the Vancouver International Film Festival observes, “Fans of Black Sabbath, kung fu, and/or wacky comedy won’t want to miss THE INVISIBLE FIGHT, the gonzo Estonian martial arts movie we didn’t know we needed.”
