What happens

Kids from Shaolin, also known as Shaolin Temple 2: Kids from Shaolin, is a 1984 kung fu comedy film directed by Chang Hsin-yen. A Hong Kong-Chinese co-production, it stars Jet Li, Yu Chenghui, Yu Hai and Ding Lan from the original 1982 Shaolin Temple film, which is also directed by Chang. However, the plot has no relation to the first film, and Kids from Shaolin is a sequel to the original in name only. Like Shaolin Temple, the plot of Kids From Shaolin combines martial arts, comedy and romance elements. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
