Plot

[edit]

There is a legend of an executioner who created a poison which brought death through absolute pleasure. This legend repeats nowadays when a French woman flees to Hong Kong after killing her lover and stealing from him an old artifact containing this poison. She meets a mobster from Taiwan and an epicurean and sadistic woman killer, who all want to get the precious poison.
