About

Maggie Cheung is (almost) Holly Golightly in this vivacious riff on Breakfast at Tiffany's. An aspiring actress hoping to make it in the cutthroat film industry, Cheung's Huang is determined to become a star. With her ambition on the rise and the momentous 1967 Hong Kong riots heating up in the background, she begins a friendship with her down-on-his-luck neighbour Kung (Kenny Bee) that begins to blossom into something more. Brimming with sparkling wit and sartorial splendour, the box office hit A Fishy Story is a charming romance for which Cheung received the first of her five Best Actress accolades at the Hong Kong Film Awards.
