It sounds like a Jackie Chan movie, but other than that I'm not sure.

It's actually more of an artsy-European film.

Yes that's it! Thanks korejora! Someone uploaded the film in youtube and there's the ending! Thanks!
Only saw the end of this film on TV more than a decade ago, maybe even 2 decades ago, and my memories of it may have changed. It was about a kid who seemed to be trained to be as an escape artist. When I got into the show he is apparently making his escape from some kidnappers. I remember him contorting his body to get off his cuffs. By the end he gets out and is being chased by the crooks. He hides inside what seems to be a public mailbox. A suspicious crook drops a knife inside and the kid gets hurt, but does not shout. Once the crook leaves the boy comes out and goes his way, dropping what seemed to be some origami or small artifacts on the road. And that's how it ended. Anybody knows this?
