Long before Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet, China told the tragic love story of the Butterfly Lovers, a legendary romance between Zhu Yingtai (祝英台 Zhù Yīngtái) and Liang Shanbo (梁山伯 Liáng Shānbó) that has moved people for over a thousand years. Set in ancient China, this famous Chinese legend follows a young woman who disguises herself as a boy to attend school, only to fall in love with her closest friend in secret. Torn apart by family duty, arranged marriage, and fate, their forbidden love leads to heartbreak, sacrifice, and one of the most beautiful endings in Chinese folklore.
