About the film
Martial arts master Jet Li stars as “Nameless” an assassin tasked with eliminating Qin Shihuang — the man who would later go on to become the historic first emperor of China. In a series of narratives from different angles of the epic story (similar to the technique used by Akira Kurosawa in Rashomon) we learn that Nameless is not the only one seeking to terminate the king, and we see him effectively thwart the efforts of the competing assassins, thereby earning the graciousness and trust of the monarch he originally set out to hunt down. However, Nameless was, after all, a killer sent to kill the king and there will be consequences for this transgression.
Nominated for both a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film upon its release in 2002, Hero has earned a rightful place as one of the most visually-striking and dramatically-compelling martial arts films of all time.
