U.S. and European trade groups urge China to allow entry of foreign workers
BEIJING, CHINA - MAY 28: A Chinese security officer wears a protective mask at the end of the closing session of the National People's Congress at the Great Hall of the People on May 28, 2020 in Beijing, China. At the session the Chinese government passed a draft of a security law for Hong Kong by a vote of 2,878 votes to one. The draft law, which has drawn international concern, is set to address issues such as secession, subversion, terrorism, and foreign interference, comes after a year of anti-government protests in the semi-autonomous region. China held its annual parliamentary gathering, known as 'The Two Sessions', at the Great Hall of the People from May 21-28th after being postponed at the height of the coronavirus outbreak in China earlier this year.

Disgusted to find out that his boss is getting into the human trafficking of young children involving the local aristocracy (Juliette Lewis), the assassin is tasked with the petty, spiteful act of chopping off the pinky finger of an American trumpet maestro (also played by McHattie). Instead, he has lunch with the musician, and rethinks his life in the hitman business. CREDIT: Calach Films
