The love rectangle in which a quixotic man falls in love in succession with three beautiful women continues. Things get more complicated as the war intensifies and eventually ends, while the characters' relationships become more entwined with each other. The Star, the Moon and the Sun bond with each other, but it's inevitable that their saga concludes with all three suffering devastating losses of luster. Evan Yang's direction fails to capture the epic scale of the times but manages to distill the tangled emotions with delicate touches. We follow the women in their effort to make meaning of their individual lives, culminating in a heart-wrenching finale.
