Wei Lim's father, Ba, is a singer in the Chinese opera and usually plays the general singing in a deep bass voice. As shrinking audiences put the opera company in financial danger, Ba finds himself forced to take on female parts. He has trouble accepting that he can no longer play a great man and even more difficulty learning to sing in the high voice required. Finally, Wei comes to the rescue.
