The Herman Yau Lai To directed, Shawn Yue Man Lok, Elanne Kong Man Yeuk starred film REBELLION (TUNG MOON) will open on the 15th. The story involves an underworld organization's overnight power struggle. It has many group fight scenes. Reportedly the shoot even triggered the community's real mobsters, who hindered the production.

In one scene in which various bosses fought on the streets. The production took place late at night around Prince Edward Road and streets of Sham Shui Po. Several key actors and extras, over one hundred people, fought on the streets. A group of mobsters from the neighborhood came to get an understanding. The crew immediately suspended production and the actresses hid in the vehicles. Kong Yeuk Lam said, "I never thought that real mobsters would appear on the set. Luckily our team has many men, actors like Yue Man Lok and (Chapman) To Man Jat took special care of her and accompanied us to the vehicles." Another actress Ella Koon Yu Na also praised Yue Man Lok and others for their masculinity because they stood up to protect the ladies on the set.

Later the crew revealed that because the scene was very realistic, with over a hundred people screaming the shoot made the area's mobsters mistake it for a real fight. After the explanation they peacefully scattered and ordered others to disperse, in turn resolving this misunderstanding of a real and fake mob.
