\n\tCappu Films has wrapped a round of international distribution agreements for \u201cFox Hunt<\/a>,\u201d the crime thriller starring Tony Leung Chiu-wai<\/a>, building on momentum from Berlin\u2019s European Film Market.<\/p>\n

\n\tDirected by Leo Zhang and drawn from real events, \u201cFox Hunt\u201d features Leung as Dai Yichen, a Shanghai financier who vanishes to Paris after orchestrating a major fraud, only to find himself the target of an international manhunt seven years later.

Olga Kurylenko also stars. The film weaves together action, crime and drama across locations in China, Thailand and France.<\/p>\n
