Across three eras, eerie dreams of a red snake connect the intertwined fates of two families. In 2026, Lian’s play about her grandmother Paochu’s guerrilla tales sparks a political backlash. Seeking Paochu’s hideout with the guide, Yulaw, they find a dead logger. Wrongly suspected, Yulaw is shot dead before Lian’s eyes. In 1989, police informant Xian breaks from his handlers after confessing to Lian’s mother. Framed for robbery, he dies under police torture. In 1952, Kun, an enforcer for Paochu’s guerrillas, executes suspected traitors. A fatal raid kills Kun, while his sister Biyu is raped, later birthing Xian. History repeats itself as love and justice struggle against a legacy of hatred.
