Description: Bruges, the
most well-preserved medieval
city in the whole of Belgium,
is a welcoming destination for
travellers from all over the
world. But for hit men Ray and
Ken, it could be their final
destination; a difficult job
has resulted in the pair being
ordered right before Christmas
by their London boss Harry to
go and cool their heels in the
storybook Flemish city for a
couple of weeks. Very much out
of place amidst the gothic architecture,
canals, and cobbled streets,
the two hit men fill their days
living the lives of tourists.
Ray, still haunted by the bloodshed
in London, hates the place,
while Ken, even as he keeps
a fatherly eye on Ray's often
profanely funny exploits, finds
his mind and soul being expanded
by the beauty and serenity of
the city. But the longer they
stay waiting for Harry's call,
the more surreal their experience
becomes, as they find themselves
in weird encounters with locals,
tourists, violent medieval art,
a dwarf American actor shooting
a European art film, Dutch prostitutes,
and a potential romance for
Ray in the form of Chlo?, who
may have some dark secrets of
her own. And when the call from
Harry does finally come, Ken
and Ray's vacation becomes a
life-and-death struggle of darkly
comic proportions and surprisingly
emotional consequences.
