[ EMPEROR MOTION PICTURE ]
When an accident temporarily robs her of her voice, Diva J flees to a small deserted village to heal both her mental and physical wounds. Her life changes when she meets and falls in love with the blind Hu Ming, who inspires her to make a comeback. But, in her absence, a new diva has risen. R has become an overnight sensation that everyone sees as the main contender for J’s crown. Yet, their successes have come at a high price. J is secretly pining for a forbidden love that seems destined to wither, and R has found that the road to stardom is littered with estranged friends and painful break-ups. But in the midst of this, both divas rise to find their own voice.

At 17, Liam and Mabel already cannot be closer. In the eyes of their classmates they are childhood sweethearts. Yet such an intimate relationship begins to deteriorate after Aaron appears! The rebellious and wild Aaron often tries to get close to Mabel through Liam; but Liam has no ill will toward him. They even continue to be like brothers; Mabel is not only surprised but also confused. "When we are 30, neither of us has a lover then we should be together." Liam has not made his feelings about Mei Bo's promise known. The silent rejection instead makes Mei Bo accept Aaron's pursuit, but Liam has not backed out of the triangle. Instead at the university he quietly becomes Aaron's student movement partner, bringing them even closer. As time passes, the trio's beautiful relationship gradually becomes lost, trapped between friendship and love...

Pang Ho-cheung brings his many years of experience as director and producer to craft this ode to today's Hong Kong film industry. Like Pang, producer To Wai-cheung, our protagonist, must go north to find his funding, even if it means getting involved with a Guangxi triad head named Tyrannosaurus and experiencing "the ultimate sex". Another investment precondition: convincing 197s star Susan Shaw to act in a classic porno remake named DARLING, I WANT IT TOO. Despite all the hardships, To is determined to make his film. With the uproarious, taboo-breaking Vulgaria, Pang gleefully exorcises all the restraints he has been bottling up with his bona fide, censorship-free Hong Kong movie.
