- LIANG HUAN is a young man with a Chinese mother and a Spanish father who grew up in the suburbs of Barcelona. He makes a living giving as a kung fu teacher and dealing with his neighborhood friends: PARDALES, a thief by profession who is like a cat with nine lives, and TRACAS, a drug dealer who is dim-witted, but with a big heart. Liang's great love is PEI LAN, a beautiful and mysterious student who attends his classes. What LIANG doesn't know is that Pei Lan is the daughter of SOONG, head of the Chinese mafia in Barcelona, whom she hopes to succeed one day. In order to get Pardales out of his regular prison visits, Liang acts as a confidant of MONTSE GELABERT, a police inspector who is after the Chinese mafia for having killed her family years ago. The arrival of WO YIM, one of the bosses of the Hong Kong Triad, will give Montse the chance to take revenge. To do so, she will put pressure on Liang to find out where the mafia keeps the money from their illegal business. Wo Yim, on the other hand, arrives in Barcelona not only to put the organization in order, but also to marry PEI LAN. However, Soong opposes this marriage because he wants to keep his daughter away from the mafia world. However, his position of inferiority to Wo Yim prevents him from doing anything to prevent it. The money trail leads Liang and Pardales to a clothing store in Badalona, a front for the mafia. But instead of informing the police, our antiheroes come up with the following idea.

- "No mosque!" is a 30 minute documentary about the conflict which took place in the city of Santa Coloma de Gramenet (Barcelona, Spain) in October and November 2004. The installation of an oratory in the ground floors of a block of flats led to the protesting of the neighbors who complaint about the place not having the conditions to accommodate a place of worship. The Muslim community had been given a provisional license by the Town Council so that they could celebrate Ramadan and then move somewhere else. But the neighbors complaint because they had been deceived by the Town Council: they had been protesting for months against the opening of this oratory. Some people from the Cultural Center Ateneu in Santa Coloma intervened in this conflict between the neighbors, the Town Council and the Muslim community. They asked for respect for those who were praying , defending in that way the constitutional right of freedom of worship. But the protests hardened with demonstrations which got noisier and noisier right in front of the oratory and a passive intervention of the local police became necessary. Once the conflict ended with the relocation of the oratory in a waste ground outside Santa Coloma, "No mosque!" tries to be a documentary about dialogue and reflection, about the facts, reasons and consequences of a case which is neither the first nor the last of this nature and which is more and more common in the European society, recipient of a great number of immigrants.
