Wu Yen - A trio of Hong Kong starlets unite for a gender-bending farce co-directed by Johnnie To and Ka-Fai Wai (RUNNING ON KARMA, LOVE FOR ALL SEASONS). Based on a Chinese folktale, WU YEN stars pop singer-actress Anita Mui (aka "the Asian Madonna") as Emperor Qi, the male ruler of an ancient kingdom overrun by warring tribes. Qi is set to marry the warrior-heroine Wu Yen (played by another pop singer-actress, Sammi Cheng) when a mischievous, bisexual sorceress known as Yin Chun (Cecilia Cheung) falls in love with both of them and begins meddling in their affairs. Yin Chun's efforts include everything from disfiguring Wu Yen with a facial deformity to seducing the lovers in both male and female guises, resulting in a comic love triangle of fantastical proportions.
