A world at war. A family in peril.

Set against the background in war-torn China in 1943, this "tender" (The New York Times) and "beautiful" (Los Angeles Times) love story from the Oscar®-winning director of Bad Girl bristles with "strong action elements, interesting story turns and an attractive cast" (Film Daily)!

Disillusioned by the war, air captain Cliff Brandon (Mature) is sullen, depressed and on one fateful night, drunk! Stumbling home that evening, he throws some cash at a beggar, only to find out in the morning he's actually paid the man for three months of housekeeping service from his daughter, the beautiful Shu-Jen (Li Li Hua)! Before long, Shu-Jen has Brandon's life straightened out... and the two have grown intense feelings for one another. But can their love survive the ravages of war?
