Starring Zhang Ziyi ("Memoirs Of A Geisha"), Joan Chen ("The Last Emperor") and Jiang Wen ("Warriors of Heaven and Earth"), "Jasmine Women" tells the story of one family's struggle to overcome its tragic history, as each daughter repeats the mistakes of her mother. Veteran cinematographer and first-time director Hou Yong (Cinematographer of Zhang Yimou's "The Road Home" and Tian Zhuang Zhuang's "The Blue Kite") sets his film in the 1930's, 50's and 80's against the backdrop of an ever-changing Shanghai. The film is all the more remarkable for the fact that Zhang Ziyi plays three roles. Zhang Ziyi plays the young Mo, the young Li and Hua.
