Simon Chan has returned to his hometown after many years training in a faraway martial arts temple. He is a born hero, defender of the weak and champion of the honest people of Cabramatta - well, not really. The truth is Simon was at art school in Melbourne, but he'd rather risk his life and keep up the kung-fu charade than disappoint his mother with the truth. Alongside his two best friends, Egg, a quick-buck entrepreneur, and Petal, a groin-kicking kung-fu girl, the trio face off against formidable foes including ferocious local gangs with a penchant for karaoke; an illegal fish fighting syndicate; a magical duck recipe that casts a horny spell; a K-Pop boy band spruiking Mayor Crawford's nefarious plan for the town; and the terrifying callisthenic combat skills of his daughter, Elle. Welcome to Maximum Choppage, a painfully funny kung fu comedy where identity, family and love is a battlefield.
