Amphetamine is a 2010
Hong Kong film starring
Byron Pang and Thomas Price. It revolves around the story of a Chinese fitness trainer, Kafka, who meets Daniel, a business executive. The film is directed by acclaimed Hong Kong Chinese film-maker
Scud, the stage name of
Danny Cheng Wan-Cheung. It was nominated for a Teddy Award at the
Berlin International Film Festival of 2010. It explores several themes traditionally regarded as 'taboo' in Hong Kong society in an unusually open, convention-defying way, and features full-frontal male nudity in several scenes. It is the third of five publicly-released films by
Scud. The four others are:
City Without Baseball, released in 2008,
Permanent Residence in 2009,
Love Actually... Sucks! in 2011, and his most recent,
Voyage, in 2013. His sixth film,
Utopians, has now been completed and awaits release, whilst his seventh,
Naked Nation, is currently in production.
