| Description |
Set in a noble household in the Qing dynasty, five daughters gather on the eve of their father's 60th birthday to prepare a delicately complex feast of crabs for their patriarch, as well as to set up an all-women poetry club. As each protagonist conjures up her own recipe, she also lays bare her intelligence, talent and desire on the culinary table. We become audience to their multi-faceted universe of morality, conspiracy and philosophy. |
