aka Ying"Without the real, there can be no shadow."
In ancient China, three kingdoms are fighting over who controls a city. An uneasy truce comes into force, but things are not what they seem in Pai, where the king (Zheng Kai), believes his wishes are being supported by his Commander Ziyu (Deng Chao), little knowing that Ziyu is in fact a double, whilst the real commander is in hiding, recovering from a sever wound, and plotting the kings downfall.
Beautifully crafted film, awash in black, white and greys, with every frame a delight to look at. Whilst the plot twists and convolutes.
