Три страшные истории. Кёко — знаменитая писательница и красивая женщина, но ведет одинокий образ жизни. Когда она была ребёнком, с ней случилось что-то страшное. Ни одна женщина не сможет устоять, если ей представится возможность омолодиться, а Цин может себе это позволить. Бывшая звезда телевидения вышла замуж за знаменитого богача и обречена на то, чтобы ее мечта сбылась. Она знакомится с таинственным поваром Мей, которая готовит ей пельмени по особому рецепту. Рю Цзи-хо — преуспевающий кинорежиссер — богатый, уважаемый, талантливый, симпатичный и красивый. Вернувшись однажды домой, он обнаруживает там совершенно незнакомого человека. Этот незнакомец — актер массовки, на которого Рю никогда не обращал внимания.

Бывшая актриса госпожа Ли обеспокоена тем, что она уже немолода, и жаждет, чтобы в их с мужем отношения вернулась страсть. Она обращается за помощью к загадочной поварихе Мэй, которая готовит особые молодящие пельмени по только ей известному рецепту.

Near the beginning of the Tang dynasty, in 7th century China, General Shi Yan-sheng is tricked into leaving the crown prince unguarded. The crown prince is murdered by one of his brothers who then becomes emperor. Shi retreats to a monastery, perhaps to hide, perhaps to plan a coup. When his loyal troops as well as the princess he desires are slain, he seeks refuge in a remote, abandoned monastery where an aged abbot schools him with practical, earthy teachings. The emperor's forces pursue Shi: first a woman, then a general seek to overpower him with lust and might. Over the course of the film, the reds of battle give way to blues of meditation.

The story of Farewell to My Concubine is itself very dramatic. Lillian Lee is rumoured to have written the original screenplay in the late 1970s, which was made into a two-part television series on RTHK by Alex Law under the name King Chau and Lady Yu. Lee then adapted the story into a novel in 1985, which later inspired a feature film, scripted again by Lee and directed by Fifth Generation mainstay Chen Kaige, going on to become an international sensation that won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival and Best Foreign Film at the Golden Globe Awards among other accolades. What's more, the Peking opera of the same title featured prominently in the novel, the TV programme and the film was itself adapted from a Kun opera, which was in turn based on the historical chronicle Basic Annals of Xiang Yu, from Records of the Grand Historian.
