La serpiente blanca

In late Tang Dynasty, China, court physicians found a peculiar kind of snake that can be processed and used as medicine. Farmers hunted them in exchange for tax exemption. This is written history and the background of this movie. Although in real history the farmers were much poorer, snake hunting was their last resort to avoid famine.

The UK release was cut, the distributor chose to remove a scene of moderate sex and two sequences of moderate violence in order to obtain a PG classification. An uncut 12 classification was available.
