House of Flying Daggers is set in China in the Tang Dynasty. The House of Flying Daggers is an underground organization which rebels against the government. A government official, Leo, played by Andy Lau, sends another official, Jin, played by Takeshi Kaneshiro, to investigate a suspected member of the House of Flying Daggers, a blind dancer named Mei, played by Zhang Ziyi. However, an investigation into an enemy organization turns into romance and love. However, a love between two rivals ends up in disaster between Leo and Jin. With many plot twists and stylized martial arts, House of Flying Daggers is an emotional and breathtaking movie with a great cinematography and story, and the suspense in the plot twists only contribute more to what should seem a simple investigation.
