Synopsis

In 2008, the golden age of Hong Kong cinema had already faded, and the industry was entering a bitter winter.

That year, the financial crisis struck. Once-mighty Hong Kong commercial blockbusters struggled at the box office, capital shifted to the mainland market, and CEPA co-productions became the industry's last way forward.

It was also the year when large numbers of film-set workers found themselves unemployed, while the ideals of countless filmmakers were trapped in a harsh economic reality.

In Hong Kong, where the glory had faded and the future was uncertain, came Fu Jun, an unknown director from a later era.

He transmigrates into the body of a contracted extra at TVB.

And so, Hong Kong cinema welcomes the king of a new era.
