About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
In 1960s China, French diplomat Rene Gallimard falls in love with opera singer Song Liling – but Song is not at all who Gallimard thinks.
Lush, deceptive elegance masks a brutal collision between romantic fantasy and political reality. This operatic sting plays out through a shifting game of identity that leaves your heart racing and your assumptions shattered.
