During Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution, idealistic anticommunist Henry Wong fled mainland China as a political refugee with his then girlfriend, Moo-Ling. He built himself a new life in Hong Kong and eventually became a slick rich banker with political ambitions. At present, he's having an affair with Katharine, a married Englishwoman, and wants to take over the influential local Chinese-language newspaper in order to try to influence political changes in China. Moo-Ling also lives in Hong Kong, where she works as a nightclub singer. Japanese journalist, Akira, befriends her in order to find out more about Henry's past. Hong Kong is about to become part of China again soon, student demonstrations are erupting in Beijing and Akira is getting closer to the shady truth behind Henry's initial financial success. The future seems uncertain for everyone.

| User ReviewAaron LI think this post-Last Emperor effort for John Lone is kinda interesting, though I can't see a whole of the Japanese perspective of the then, pre-1997, handover era of Hong Kong, except the plot twist over a certain Japanese war criminal's next-of-kin subplot. |
| User ReviewRob MI was an extra in this film in Hong Kong in 1989 - the party scene at the old colonial building. My participation in this film does not make it any good! |
