Yau Sui struggles with trying to rise in the ranks of his department and his skill as a leader becomes challenged when a new senior officer is transferred to their station. In the meantime, Yau Sui sparks a relationship with a troubled doctor and he, like the rest of his fellow firefighters, struggles to maintain a balance between his personal and professional life. However, the drama comes to a head when a catastrophic five-alarm fire in a chemical plant forces Yau Sui and the other firefighters to put aside their differences and work together in an attempt to break their station's curse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLIFELINE, described by many as Hong Kong's answer to Backdraft, is masterfully directed by one of Hong Kong's most celebrated filmmakers, Johnnie To (The Heroic Trio, PTU). Focussing heavily on the personal lives of the characters, the film succeeds by not only being a strong study of the hardships firefighters must endure, but by also delivering intense stunt-filled action sequences, culminating in a nearly 45-minute non-stop climactic fire sequence. Vinegar Syndrome Archive is proud to present LIFELINE on 4K UHD for the first time, newly restored from the original camera negative, featuring beautifully photographed and pulse-pounding fire sequences unlike any you've seen before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003edirected by: Johnnie To\u003cbr\u003estarring: Ching Wan Lau, Alex Fong, Carman Lee, Ruby Wong, Raymond Ho-Yin Wong\u003cbr\u003e1997 \/ 110 min \/ 1.85:1 \/ Cantonese Mono \u0026amp; Stereo\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional info:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-disc Set: 4K Ultra HD \/ Region A Blu-ray\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K UHD presented in High-Dynamic-Range\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly scanned \u0026amp; restored in 4K from its 35mm original camera negative\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresented with the following sound options: original Cantonese mono theatrical soundtrack with newly translated English subtitles, Cantonese stereo ‘home video’ remixed soundtrack, Mandarin language dub soundtrack and a commentary track with martial arts film expert Frank Djeng\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new interview with director Johnnie To (27 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new interview with special effects artist Chi Shui-Tim (10 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohnnie To in the 1990s - a video essay by film historian Samm Deighan (18 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival Making-of Documentary (15 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival interview with director Johnnie To (4 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival interview with actress Ruby Wong (3 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArchival interview with actor Raymond Ho-Yin Wong (2 min)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal trailer\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e28-page booklet with an essay by film critic Sean Gilman\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16.5 x 22” double-sided full-color poster\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible sleeve artwork\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNewly translated English subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Orbit DVD","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44391091535916,"sku":"810161480098US","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0359\/2201\/8348\/files\/lifeline-4k-uhd-vsa-used-used-4k-uhd.jpg?v=1787526571","url":"https:\/\/www.orbitdvd.com\/products\/lifeline-4k-uhd-vsa-used","provider":"Orbit DVD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
