The Chinese Botanist's Daughters

Asian mysteries
narcrotics, smothery verdure, steam. moist skin and black hair like silk. old religious life, self-sacrifice, and new love...
This story tells about the love between two lonely Chinese girls who lived in the 1980s. They grow love rapidly, but in the end, they are condemned to death not for hurting An's father accidentally but for their sorrowful love.
It's 21st century now, but the discrimination on homosexuality is still here on earth. And there are not a few countries which provide that homosexuality is an offense punishable by death...

I hope you wouldn't mind all these outbursts of mine even before seeing the whole movie itself. I have decided not to see it at all owing to the others' adverse comments until after reading your reply just right now. I will try to find its DVD & view the whole movie to play fair. By the way, I have to say the piece of music you put up with this video here is unspeakably beautiful. It reminds me of the beautiful background music from 宮崎駿's films and I would appreciate your enlightenment :)

"love is innocent irrespective of sexes and deserves the society's tolerance and respect." You are quite right! I wish all people were tolarent like you! Anyway, I also think you should watch this movie:) You might find something new. Please let me know if you do. And thanks for kind comments on my vid! It made my day!

Obviously this movie's intended audiences are Westerners, so there are many stereotypical faults in the plots: 1.  there is no death penalty for being gay/lesbian, 2. women enjoy more equality in China than other developed countries in Asia such as Japan or South Korea because of communist doctrine.

a lot of "mistakes"(if it is just mistakes).

1. china has never had  a law to sentence gays/lesbians to death, let alone at the time the movie sets (around 1996), actually China rarely sentences a woman to death no matter what crime, let alone 2 for "crime".

Want to see her happy again, she seems to be very stressful to be under spotlights these days...小冉，輕鬆些呀！事情總會淡化的。成名的代價實在­太大了，這祗是普通人渴望的自由。請小冉開心生活吧，大家放過她­。

The reality of homosexuality was discriminated in China during the 1980s but they don't get excuted for being that way. This film completely ruined it near the end and towards the end. I think the director was being a prick so he decided to create a ridiculously unrealistic ending scene because he's not allowed to film it in China. I was just enjoying the harmonious atmosphere of the film. Haii...disappointed..

I watched this movie and it made me cry a lot seriously. After watching it I felt depressed and worried. It's really based on reality u__u the horrible reality.
