Cina, XVII secolo. La giovane Peonia, appartenente a una delle famiglie più in vista di Hangzhou, come ogni altra ragazza della sua età, è promessa in sposa a un uomo di cui non conosce nulla. Per il suo sedicesimo compleanno, il padre – che ha coltivato in lei l'amore per il sapere, la lettura e la scrittura – organizza nel giardino della loro villa la messa in scena dell'opera classica Il padiglione delle peonie, la cui trama sembra rispecchiare il destino della ragazza.
