Liyuan Sisters: The elder sister Yue'e is already the most popular Peking Opera actor in Peking City, but the younger sister Yueru has little interest in opera. The two sisters depended on each other in the war-torn era.
National crisis: After the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in 1937, the Japanese army occupied Peiping. Colonel Yamamoto took a fancy to Yue'e's beauty and talent, and coerced her into performing for the Japanese army.
Would rather die than surrender: Yue'e made her ambition clear on the stage with the song "Farewell My Concubine" and committed suicide with a hairpin, showing the integrity of the Chinese people.
Reborn from the ashes: Under the guidance of her sister-in-law Li Xiulan, Yueru inherited her sister's legacy, practiced opera hard, and vowed to avenge her sister.
Road to Revenge: Yueru approached Yamamoto with her superb acting skills and completed the fatal blow during the performance of "The Drunken Concubine".
The journey of the Anti-Japanese War: After taking revenge, Yueru joined the underground party, continued to resist Japan with opera as a weapon, and eventually grew into a staunch revolutionary warrior.
