Set in the 1930s, amid the Second Sino-Japanese War, Michelle Yeoh plays Ming-ming, a skilled Chinese secret agent sent to Kaa Yi near Tibet to uncover the Japanese occupation and its plans to tighten control over the town.

She teams up with Derek Yee Tung-Sing as Secret Agent 001, her contact in Kaa Yi. They first encounter a conman, Richard Ng Yiu-Hon, and soon enlist Chin-chin, a rebellious princess who joins their mission.

Together they discover that the Japanese intend to convert Kaa Yi into a weapons manufacturing site.

Before they can warn the locals, Ming-ming and her companions are captured. They are to be executed, along with Youda, Chin-chin’s lover and a local aristocrat who had initially colluded with the invaders. The locals chant for their release and the local Kaa Yi army turns on the Japanese, firing at the invaders and freeing Ming-ming and her friends.

With the threat unsettled, the town begins to organize a defense of Kaa Yi, determined to resist the Imperial Japanese Army under the leadership of Ming-ming and her growing circle of allies.
