-
Fist of Fury
1972
“The film was shot mostly at the Golden Harvest studios in Kowloon, with some limited exterior filming in Macau.” Wikipedia

1 production shot at 1 place inside Kowloon, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Kowloon itself.

Set here, per Wikipedia
Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Kowloon, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement: two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.
