A general's widow discovers her husband's body abandoned on the battlefield. Refusing to let his sacrifice be forgotten, she gathers the women of her household—daughters, daughters-in-law, even the maid—and forges them into a vengeful militia. This 1972 war adventure, based on a legendary Chinese tale, transforms a family's grief into a spectacular symphony of swordplay and strategy. Watch as they take up arms, not for glory, but for honor, staging one of cinema's most audacious rescue missions against an entire army.
