Sleeping Dogs (1978)
La Nouvelle-Zélande, dans un futur proche. Smith se rend compte que sa femme le trompe, il la quitte et décide de vivre enfin sa vie. Mais le chaos économique dans lequel est plongé la Nouvelle-Zélande a créé un climat de peur. En effet, des forces spéciales pour le gouvernement sont chargés d'éliminer tout intervenant au régime mis en place. Smith se retrouve dans un clan de résistance pour la démocratie. Mais lui prône une attitude non-violente. Le premier film néo-zélandais à avoir été distribué aux Etats-Unis.
