Shrouded with secrets and mysteries, a run-down shophouse in Singapore draws attention to banker Chi Ling who returns from Hong Kong to claim its inheritance. As she discovers the drudgeries and intrigues of her great-grandmother’s world – in a brothel set in late 1930s Singapore – she is pushed to decide the fate of the building and to reconcile with her roots and history. The Last Madame is a story that intertwines two seemingly opposite generations through the fascinating story of Chi Ling and her great-grandmother, Fung Lan.
A story of the past and present – ''The Last Madame'' tells the story of the last brothel owner, Fung Lan, in 1930s Singapore. Set in 2019, the successful but cold-hearted Chi Ling returns from Hong Kong to settle an inheritance from her great-grandmother, Fung Lan – only to discover that therein lies deeper and controversial histories behind house.

Joanne Peh as Fung Lan
Ruthless and cold-hearted, Fung Lan is a former prostitute, now the head of a brothel, The House of Phoenix (Fung Wong Gok), in 1930s Singapore. Educated, she fled from her well-to-do family and an arranged marriage as a young girl, only to find herself caught in a deplorable state of affairs that led her to where she is now. She has since remade herself and in light of a grisly murder of the century, changes are abounding her future and the future of the brothel – and we find that there is more to Fung Lan than meets the eye. Fung Lan is a survivor. She wants to take control of her life and beat men at their own game. To her, ''if you can’t win them, join them and be the boss'' – ''and save your kind while you are at it.'' Seeking revenge, she has achieved it. But now she wants to avoid being caught for her dark past.
