The pitch-black palace where those who have died in the imperial harem make their final visit: the Palace of the Twelfth Month. It is a place that provides the “last meal” in accordance with the wishes of the spirits of the dead. The palace's chef, Lin Hua, prepares meals with care to ensure they can depart peacefully. However, the wishes of her guests are far from simple and to serve them the best possible meal, Lin Hua runs through the harem, where various intentions collide.
