Jiang Ci is an inheritor of ancient tie-dyeing techniques, burdened with a despised ability to see yin and yang. All she wants is to quietly protect her family's traditional craft.

To create a viral sensation, she smashes the key artifact suppressing the vengeful spirits of a Republican-era opera troupe: an ancient bronze mirror. A rift in time and space tears open, and an overwhelming tide of resentment, carrying the opera spirits with it, sweeps across the film studio...
