Artistically directed by Tang Shu-wing, with French guest music director Béatrice Thiret, and re-edited by filmmaker Jérôme Diamant‑Berger, the work is built around Henri Diamant‑Berger’s 1921 French silent film The Three Musketeers. It reimagines the classic through a contemporary dialogue with the Chinese literary masterpiece Water Margin. The visual language of French silent cinema is combined with original music composed by students from the Composition and Electronic Music Department and a newly written Cantonese script, performed by students from the School of Music and the School of Drama, alongside multimedia content created by students from the School of Film and Television.
