Synopsis of Empress Orchid
Sumérgete en los últimos días del Imperio Chino con 'Empress Orchid'. Orchid, una joven de diecisiete años de una familia aristocrática pero empobrecida, se ve inesperadamente elegida como concubina de bajo rango del Emperador. Dentro de la Ciudad Prohibida, un mundo erótico y ritualizado esconde secretos de asesinato y fantasmas. Las miles de concubinas compiten ferozmente por dar un hijo al Emperador y convertirse en su Emperatriz. Orchid, decidida a no ser una víctima, se instruye en el arte de complacer a un hombre, soborna su camino al lecho real y seduce al monarca. Sin saberlo, China colapsará a su alrededor, y ella será su última Emperatriz.
