　　12月24日平安夜，一个普世欢腾、充满希望的日子。
　　在挤满人潮的闹市中，女扒手Mari(真家留美子饰)亦在找寻她的“希望”。她打扮得像一个游客一样，寻找她的猎物。黑社会小头目合金铃携着手提包刚从银行出来。Mari利用自己的美色，略施小计，便将手提包骗到手！可惜当她回到自己家里，发现皮包内只是一本名册时，不禁大叹倒楣。
　　然而，香港第一大黑帮东兴社的坐馆O.D(蔡一智饰)却大件事了。因为名册正是属于东兴社的！O.D接到帮中长老四叔的命令：午夜四时半前务必找回名册，否则莫讲竞逐连任，甚至连性命也将会不保！O.D立即召集手下翻转整个香港，并出暗花500万，务求于限时前取回名册，可怜调酒师Peter(曾国祥饰)亦被强征入伍，只因他曾经学过三个月日语。
　　那边厢，热血探员Paul(洪天明饰)亦透过反黑组女友菲菲(张咏妍饰)收到了东兴社失名册的线报！Paul不禁热血沸腾，因为只要能够先取得名册，便能一举捣破东兴社，更重要的是可以向一直看不起他的前上司李督察(吴嘉龙饰)显一点颜色。
　　入夜，Mari独个儿在酒吧喝闷酒，却不知O.D的手下正四出寻找她！不幸地竟然被合金铃撞个正着。Mari施展浑身解数，好不容易甩掉他，但她的行踪已被Paul发现。

　　一番扰攘之下，三人最后达成协定，拿名册和O.D见面，Peter和Mari照样取得暗花，Paul则安排警方突击，一举将东兴社歼灭！
　　三人齐声欢呼，毕竟，这是一个愿望成真的平安夜！三人坐言起行，照计划进行，里应外合，希望一举成功。但O.D又岂是善男信女，他早已布下天罗地网，等着三人上钓……

　　Through outrageous, never-before-seen footage, witness the making of the Jackass crew's last go at wild stunts.

　　An outstanding comedy whose poetic style hearkens back to the films of Wes Anderson. It tells of a youngster focused on winning the nationwide drumming championship in spite of certain obstacles – such as not having any drums! A film that is every bit as hardcore as Jimmy Page’s guitar, and every bit as endearing as Robert Plant’s waistcoats.
　　There are a lot of films that stick to the hackneyed theme of the outsider bent on fulfilling his dream in spite of all the odds – thanks to which he not only achieves his coveted success but, moreover, instils hope in the hearts of the weak and degraded through his courage and determination. But none of these films has had a protagonist as charismatic as Power – a young man obsessed with drumming drumlessly (read: steady gesticulation set to the rhythm of legendary heavy metal anthems), whose aim is to win the nationwide drumming championship, support striking miners in New Mexico and win the heart of a girl who went deaf at the age of three at a Status Quo concert. This brilliant comedy – reminiscent of the films of Wes Anderson in its fascination with bizarre twists on standard genre themes – will thrill you even if you are not a fan of 1970s hard-rock dinosaurs. But you mustn’t forget Power’s creed while you’re watching: “I don’t need drums. I am drums!"
　　About the director
　　Ari Gold received a Student Oscar in 2000 for his film Helicopter, an experimental short film in which he used authentic photography, scene reconstructions and animated sequences to tell of the tragic death of his mother. The Sundance Festival accepted Gold’s short student films for three consecutive years, and one of them – the sixty-second film Culture, which the filmmaker accompanied with a 10-point manifesto signed with the pseudonym Ari von Gold – elicited (particularly in Serbia) a wave of similar films of exactly one minute in length avowing “Dogma 99”. In addition to filmmaking, Ari Gold is also a dedicated musician – he sings in the bands The Honey Brothers and The Gold Brothers, he plays the ukulele, the piano and occasionally the drums. The film Adventures of Power is his first feature-length film.
