The film tells the story of a generation of hero Li Mubai who intends to withdraw from the arena, and entrusts her confidante Yu Xiulian to bring her Qingming sword to the capital as a gift for Lord Baylor to collect. Li Mubai's move to retire from the rivers and lakes actually caused more grievances in the rivers and lakes. The director uses Western narrative techniques and shooting techniques to polish the film, taking into account art and the market, East and West: "Crouching Tiger" and "Hidden Dragon" are both related to what lies beneath the surface, especially the hidden "passion, emotion, desire" ——The dragon hidden in all of us. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" shows that authentic self-cultivation is a balance between a person's natural freedom and social roles, relationships and responsibilities.
