Features: A timeless and ever-relevant theme—love—performs its dance of souls amidst the clamor of the times and the of history. Let us take a break from the hustle and bustle of the mortal world to savor the pure, flawed, willful, and forbidden beauty of true love. Perhaps it is the moment when Romeo's dagger pierces Juliet's heart, or when Emperor Xuan of Han cuts off his sleeves for Dong Zhuo, or when Diana, Xu Zhimo, and Sanmao leave this world. When Edward VIII declares, "Without you, I have nothing," it moves us, awakens our weary and dusty hearts, inspires us to gather courage and rediscover the ability to love, which we should have inherently as human beings.
