Director: Stanley KWAN

Xiuling is a former theatre star who has decided to return to the stage a year after the death of her husband. However, Xiuling's greatest rival Yuwen, aiming to make her stage debut, is also set to star alongside her. A week before the opening performance at Hong Kong’s City Hall Theater, sparks flare between the two actresses over various issues.... A glamorous backstage ensemble piece featuring eight women (of which one is the transgender theatre director) out-acting one another, a thorough demonstration of the direction by Stanley KWAN who has worked on numerous outstanding women's films. Joining Hong Kong stars Sammi CHENG and Gigi LEUNG are Chinese actresses QI Xi and BAI Bai-he. Of note is the performance of 80s Hong Kong star KAM Kwok Leung.
