- After a seemingly undead man is bound and buried alive, he digs himself back to the surface and seeks bloody vengeance on those who caused him his suffering.
- The documentary was covertly filmed by Swiss investigative journalist Mark Rissi in China. It portrays the living conditions and methods used for killing animals raised for fur on Chinese farms and in markets. Mark Rissi had previously conducted a similar investigation in China in 2005, revealing unimaginably cruel practices such as skinning animals while they were still alive and other forms of torturous animal handling. Four years later, he returned to assess if the situation had improved. Regrettably, the footage he captured showed the same distressing scenes as four years prior: common raccoon dogs being skinned at markets while fully conscious, and the killing of dogs for fur remained commonplace. The only notable change was increased caution among local farmers when foreign cameramen were present. The documentary also sheds light on the conditions in which foxes and minks are kept on local farms.
- An extended investigation into the fur trade that China is estimated to produce approximately 85 percent of the world's fur products - and it has virtually no regulations or rules for the treatment of the animals. According to Mark Rissi, a spokesman for Swiss Animal Protection, which has documented abuse of animals raised for their fur as early as 1983, the China project has been going on for several years. The Swiss Animal Protection report said slaughter methods range from beatings with a metal or wooden stick or swinging the animal until it slams to the ground. Then they are skinned.
