Three sisters who had eventful lives during the traumatic evolution of modern China.
Three sisters were dreaming of the new age. At the beginning of the past century, there were three sisters in China brought up in an unconventional way by their parents but with a lot of love. Coming back from America where they were studying, each of them chose a completely different partner from the others. The oldest one married the heir of a wealthy financial group who made his company even bigger, big enough to influence the Chinese economy. The second daughter fell in love with a communist revolutionary, married him despite her family's wishes and devoted herself to the revolution with him, later becoming the Vice Chairman. The youngest daughter married an ambitious nationalist army commander. The revolutionary and the army commander, who destroyed the previous dynasty and founded the new China, became enemies later and the revolutionary was defeated just before the whole Chinese nation was united. The agitation in those days in China tore the sisters apart as well as the nation itself. The sisters trifled with the irony of fate, got through the Imperial over-throw, the Japan-China war and then the Chinese civil war with equal amounts of love & hate.
