Don Tyler (Donald Sutherland) is a world-renowned film director whose work has brought him a lifetime of accolades. Now he`s in Beijing shooting an epic about the last emperor of China`s Qing dynasty. In the midst of shooting an intense scene portraying one of the emperor`s concubines giving birth, he suddenly realizes he can`t go on with the film. His self-confidence has deserted him and he hasn`t the slightest idea what his picture is about. His assistant (Kwan) hires down-and-out camerman YoYo (Ge) to take the reins.
