Dance

This love story originates from one of the Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio written by Pu Songling. It was adapted into the Hong Kong blockbuster movie A Chinese Ghost Story in the 1980s, and has taken on yet another incarnation as the grand dance drama L’Amour Im – mortel .
Nie Xiaoqian, an alluring ghost, is enslaved by a sinister demon and forced to prey on humans. When she meets and falls head-overheels in love with the honest and good-natured Ning Caichen, she becomes determined to save him from evil forces, even at the cost of her own afterlife. In L’Amour Im – mortel, the timeless classic is filled with new spirit by the performers’ physical expression. It captures the essence of the most beautiful human values in a poignant ghost story that will touch many hearts in this broken world.
“Life is a dream in which laughter and tears meet.”
