An insular world with its own highly ritualized codes of behavior, the film traces the destinies of the beautiful 'flower girls', whose lives depended on their ability to win, and then hold, the affections of their wealth callers.... Flowers of Shanghai was Hou Hsiao-hsien's first film set outside of Taiwan."
