Synopsis:

In Stanley Kwan's emblematic Hong Kong Second New Wave film, Rouge, Cantopop icons Anita Mui and Leslie Cheung play doomed lovers—a humble courtesan and a wealthy heir—bound by a tragic 1930s suicide pact. Fifty years later, she returns to Hong Kong seeking him, pulling a young couple into her quest to rekindle their love. This sensuous ghost story, with its lush visuals and haunting mood, serves as a poignant elegy for lost love and the vanishing past.
