I don’t think I want to live here but some type of video game set inside it would be most welcome.
Is there a documentary anyone can recommend that takes us to street level?
Don’t know offhand if a documentary, but a film set in a similar area (Kowloon-adjacent, same vibe) is Chungking Express.
I’m really loving all these recommendations. Thanks so much!

Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In
Kowloon features in Shenmue.

Moose2/brutalmoose has a funny let's play!
I played this game a lifetime ago and don’t remember Kowloon.
Thanks for the video. Helps me avoid replaying it!
Haven't seen any documentaries, but Blood Sport shot a few scenes inside.
Wait, with Van Damme?
That's the one.
Thanks!
Fairly certain there is a doc/film shot in the city, though I don't recall the name, although it might be mentioned in this video I watched recently about the city https://youtu.be/hoNclh1K_zY
Thanks for the help!
