Plot
In her boldest performance yet, Zeng Meihuizi stars as a woman who lives on the sea with her three husbands. With an overactive libido, she heartily devotes herself to her work as a prostitute. As in the trilogy's two previous films, Chan uses the world's oldest profession to satirise the state of contemporary Hong Kong.
