Anti-Corruption (simplified Chinese: 廉政风波; traditional Chinese: 廉政風暴; pinyin: Lian zheng feng bo; lit. 'Storm of Integrity') is a 1975 film written and directed by Ng See Yuen.[1][2] It was the first film produced by Ng's company Seasonal Film Corporation.[3] Anti-Corruption was co-produced by Eternal Film.[3]

The film shows the incidents that precipitated the creation of the Independent Commission Against Corruption in 1974.[4] Anti-Corruption is a crime thriller that depicts police corruption and was based on an inquiry into the activities of the drug lord Wu Xihao between 1973 and 1974.[5][6] It was a low-budget film that did well at the box office.[7] On 12 October 1979, the scholar Bo Yang penned a 4,000-word essay about the film in the China Times.[8] Anti-Corruption's success led to many more Hong Kong films about police and criminals to be made.[8]
