Shaolin Vengeance
少林和尚
Synopsis
Frank the carpenter is in love with Hsiao Cheng, his boss's daughter.

The wife of Frank's former boss has an extra-marital affair with the carpenter-shop's foreman. When the boss finds out, the foreman kills him, and sets the blame on Frank. Frank will fight for his honour, and wins back his good name - but not his former love.
