Storyline:  A delicate and inventive portrait of Ruan Lingyu, China’s first true movie star, who died before turning 30. Stanley Kwan blends narrative, archival footage, re-creations of lost films, interviews, and conversations with his cast. The film becomes a kaleidoscope of memory and tragedy, with Maggie Cheung embodying Ruan alongside Tony Leung.
