Synopsis

The movie retells the ancient Chinese story of the Green Snake and sister White Snake, two giant snake demons, immortal creatures who manage to attain human form after hundreds of years of practicing their sorcery. However, this disrupts the natural order, meaning many Buddhist boosters are soon after the two sisters. Meanwhile, the two snakes contend themselves with human lives.
