It draws on Chinese philosophical ideas derived from, or based on, Confucianism, Daoism, Buddhism, and other schools of thought such as Mohism and Legalism, examines a cluster of recent Chinese martial arts films centering on the figure of the xia - the heroic protagonist, the Chinese equivalent of medieval Europe's knight-errant - and outlines the philosophical principles and themes undergirding the actions of xia and their narratives.
