Geling Yan traces the lives of two individuals separated by
prejudice and mistrust, but bound forever by their passion for one
another. Fusang is a Chinese girl shanghaied from her village in
China, brought to California and sold into the seedy underworld of
prostitution. Soon she falls into an obsessive relationship with a
young boy, Chris. But many barriers are laid between the lovers -
by Chris's wealthy family, and most menacingly by Fusang's
murderous pimp, who bestrides Chinatown with a clutch of daggers at
his waist.
