Episodes from the life and career of a woman who starts as a child in a small traveling Chinese Opera troupe and who becomes an international star playing male roles. It is set from the late 1940's to the early 1990's though dates are not mentioned, only shown by objects such as a television set.
The narrative is punctuated by studio scenes of the Demon Queller (Zhong Kui - her father's favorite role) in Chinese Opera makeup and costume struggling with various Chinese Opera ghosts; presumable this represents the lead's conflict with the woman's role in Chinese Opera and Society.
The story is thin and ignores the political turmoil or the period, but some of the Chinese Opera acting is quite good.
