Ding Hui (Zhang Ziyi) is a member of Purple Butterfly, a powerful resistance group in Japanese occupied Shanghai. An unexpected encounter reunites her with Itami (Nakamura Tooru), an ex-lover…and officer with a secret police unit tasked with dismantling Purple Butterfly.

Featuring Chinese superstar Zhang Ziyi (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Hero), Director Lou Ye’s PURPLE BUTTERFLY allies a swooning, lyrical romanticism with a monumental, Leone-esque narrative sweep into an epic tale of doomed passion and mistaken identity.
