In the Qing Dynasty, the only people who lived in the Forbidden City are the Emperor's concubines, their maids, the eunuchs and the Emperor himself. Lee Lien Ying is an eunuch who enters the Forbidden City with a big secret. One that will have his head on the floor if the wrong people find out.

VIBE

A lavishly staged, deeply intimate look into the gilded cage of the Forbidden City. It's a sensual, melancholic exploration of hidden desires and the quiet desperation that festers behind opulent walls. The atmosphere is thick with unspoken longing and the ever-present threat of exposure.
