Herstory in History
Fu Studio
Based on the real-life of a Chinese musical theatre actress, Herstory in History explores the awakening of a woman's agency. After years of portraying a legendary princess sacrificed for duty, the actress realises that both the ancient figure and her modern self are confined by the same invisible walls-defined as daughters, wives, or martyrs: never themselves. Facing struggles in life and career expectations, she refuses to remain a footnote in a predetermined narrative. In a powerful act of reclamation, she seizes the pen to rewrite her own story, evolving from a stage role into an independent soul.
