Against a backdrop of gradually increasing chaos in Hong Kong, tall
pale blonde Julia sets sail on serene waters.
Julia is an enigma: daughter of Queensland landed aristocracy,
destined for the world of ballet.
Loud-mouthed Lee is straight from the bars and brothels of
Kowloon. The two women cement their unlikely friendship making "art
movies" and visiting warships at anchor in neutral Hong Kong.
They party hard and sleep with everyone from movie Stars to Naval
officers, to Filipino playboys and Russian emigre talent scouts.
They ignore the turmoil around them, the Cultural Revolution in
China, the war in Vietnam, but gradually the riots, murders,
destructive landslides and typhoons intrude into and encompass the
lives of themselves and their men.
Against all odds, they find love.
And experience great loss.
