한 때 잘나갔던 여배우 문은 현재 애 딸린 경력단절 이혼녀이다.

때마침 나타난 복귀찬스, 하지만 주연 캐스팅의 조건은 대역 없이 무술연기를 해야 한다는 것인데, 아이를 맡기고 시작한 고강도 훈련으로 자신감을 회복하기 시작할 무렵 영화의 성공을 위해 전 남편을 섭외해야 하는 또 하나의 난관에 봉착하는데…

Moon Lee, a celebrated award-winning actress, has become a full-time mom and divorcée since retiring. Desperate to regain her sense of self, she jumps at the chance to work with her long-time collaborator, director Roger Woo, again. Only this time, he casts her as the lead in a do-your-own stunts martial arts film. The role requires extensive training and though Moon is at first uncertain, she leaves her young son in the care of Roger's assistant and commits herself to back-breaking training. As soon as she starts to gain some confidence, Roger breaks the news to her: the only way the film can move ahead is to cast her ex-husband, Julliard, as the male lead.
