The Mask of Shura of Fire Cloud

On a faraway planet lives a race of aliens. As they do not need men and women to mate in order to reproduce, the concept of love does not exist on their home planet.

But during her search, she meets a tender-hearted but naive young man named Tian Yi (starring Wang Tian Yu). A number of aliens come searching for Angela, worried that she is about to run into trouble. Equipped with advanced alien technology, Angela and the other aliens can inhabit human bodies.

But her grandfather (Law Kar Ying) warns that grave danger is ahead for the aliens if they do not leave Earth. And he turns out to be right. An evil scientist has got wind about the alien presence on Earth and has decided to stop at nothing in his quest to capture Angela – even tricking the government into helping him by sending special agents in pursuit.
