Presentation

China, 9th century. As the province of Weibo attempts to break free from imperial authority, Nie Yinniang returns to her family after many years in exile. Her upbringing was entrusted to a nun who, in the utmost secrecy, trained her in the martial arts. Now a vigilante, her mission is to kill Tian Ji'an, her cousin, former lover, and the new governor of Weibo. Nie Yinniang will have to choose: sacrifice the man she loves or break away from the ‘Order of Assassins’ forever.

MONDAY, JULY 20 AT 6 PM
