From villages throughout South-east Asia, girls are drwn into city prostitution to survive, enslaved by police corruption, heroin-dealing and the humiliations of brothel life. One girl, Wah San-Lin, plans to escape. Working as a double agent for the Drug Squad, she falls into compromises and intrigues that she ultimately cannot control.
Against this, San-Lin recalls her traditional Asian childhood, her family's sorrows and inevitable destruction.
