BINGO IS A 3-YEAR-OLD DRUG DETECTOR MALINOIS BREED DOG. IT IS HIS FIRST FILM AND HIS ACTION SCENES ARE DIRECTED BY WORLD-RENOWNED ‘WOLF-WHISPERER’ ANDREW SIMPSON (THE REVENANT, WOLF TOTEM, GAME OF THRONES). Aside from the characters what caught most of our attention was sniffer dog, Bingo’s performance. This is not a ‘dog-film’, but Bingo’s intelligent performance, together with the on-point editing, heart pumping sound effects upped the tension by another level every single time he appeared. I was moved by Bingo’s chemistry with Gao Gang (Zhang Hanyu) and how their close relationship was not just expressed through their interaction, it was also shown through the camera movement and physical actions. (Trying my best not to spoil the plot, so watch it to understand what I mean!) Zorba (Bingo) with Trainer, Andrew Simpson
