劇中敘述1979年的暑假，女主角孟娟（陳妤飾演）邀請大學同學書蘭（劉倩妏飾演）到家中的香蕉園幫忙採收。兩人偷偷發展出一段曖昧的情誼，還結伴到美麗島雜誌社為自由人權發聲，眼看彼此找到心之所向，卻渾然不覺踏入白色恐怖的風暴中。

抗日时期，爱国人士高先生不满汪伪政权卖国行径，与神偷黑帽子（王羽 饰）将双方密约窃走，计划将其公开。上海富商沈刚夫（陈观泰 饰）受人所托，命上海滩十三太保保护高先生离沪赴港。南京方面内务部长官洪述亦同时动作，收买部分太保暗杀高先生……长枪小杨（李修贤 饰）首先发难行刺却因失手被洪述清除，高先生先后在烟嘴冯金榜（江生 饰）、眼镜（王钟 饰）、富商陶大业（梁家仁 饰）、学生关伟（刘德华 饰）、浪子叶不凡（姜大卫 饰）、少爷梁少雄、教头（狄龙）的护卫下历经连番血战，终于杀出重围。只可叹“教头快刀、浪子富翁、学生少爷、熊虎鹰豹、眼镜烟嘴、长枪难逃”的上海滩十三太保一朝风流云散。

Ono’s work related destruction to interpersonal, often intimate, human relations. This element was particularly thought-provoking in ‹Cut Piece›, one of many actions she did as DIAS [Destruction in Art Symposium]. Ono had first done the performance in 1964, in Japan, and again at Carnegie Hall, in New York, in 1965. Ono sat motionless on the stage after inviting the audience to come up and cut away her clothing, covering her breasts at the moemnt of unbosoming. ‹Cut Piece› entailed a disrobing, a denouement of the reciprocity between exhibitionism and scopic desires, between victim and assailant, between sadist and masochist: and, as a heterosexual herselft, Ono unveiled the gendered relationship of male and female subjects as objects for each other.(source: Kristine Stiles,«Uncorrupted Joy: International Art Actions,» in: Out of Actions: between performance and the object, 1949–1979, Paul Schimmel (ed.), MoCA Los Angeles, New York/London, 1998, p. 278.)
