Summary |
Set in the artistic underground of 1930's China, this is the epic story of Mei Lanfang - the performer who overcame prejudice to become China's greatest opera star. Born in Beijing in 1894, Mei grew up in a period where an opera career was only slightly more respectable than prostitution. Nominated for the Golden Bear at the 2009 Berlin International Film Festival |
