Executive producer Zhu Lingqing says the documentary adopts a restrained, bystander-style perspective to document the lesser-known sides of those celebrities, producing a truly human touch.
Some segments reveal how vulnerable and sensitive these celebrities are outside of the limelight.
Shu Qi, who won best actress at the 10th Asian Film Awards for the martial arts arthouse film, The Assassin, recalls one of the darkest chapters of her life, when she ran away from home as a teenager.
Audiences can see the star trying to shake off these unpleasant childhood memories, including by writing the film script, The Girl, which reflects a young woman's loneliness and suffering.
Movie fans may be surprised to discover that Wang Jingchun, who won best actor at the 69th Berlin International Film Festival for So Long, My Son, is a fashionable gourmet with a passion for reading.
