"Based on Vonda N. McIntyre's work, 'The Moon and The Sun', this fantasy epic tells the story of Louis XIV (Pierce Brosnan) who steals the power of a mermaid (Bingbing Fan) in search of immortality and the plan backfires when his daughter (Kaya Scodelario) forms a relationship with the mystical creature.
