Eight segments of opera films: Sheng Xinma performs a monologue from A King's Revenge (1955), followed by an excerpt of The Patriot's Sword (1958). Cibo Liang is featured in An Immortal Refuses Love (1958), and Yutang Bai appears in The Wonder Boy (1961). Segment five shows Xingbo Liang, Jiasheng Lin, and Cibo Liang in The Impartial Bao Gong (1967), while segment six is a performance by Northern opera actress Suqiu Yu.
