Plot: A brush with death brings a martial arts protege into contact with a fantastical world of giant turtle monsters, powerful sorcerers, and the two dueling, bird-riding daughters of the Crane Master, who presides over all.
Overview: This period-fantasy piece from Producer Tsui Hark features his continuing trademarks of Wu'xia, flying people, wild characters and duels in the sky. On his way to a congress of kung fu masters, an initiate falls from a high cliff, only to be rescued by the lovely Tien Lam (Anita Mui), who rides a huge crane. When Tien Lam learns of the growing discord between the kung fu masters, she must intervene to prevent an all-out war between rival martial arts clans.
