Synopsis

Woo Viet is a refugee from Vietnam who after killing the Viet Cong for so long seeks a way out via Hong Kong to start anew in America. He meets up with social worker, and longtime pen pal Lap Quan who's very giving but is about to sacrifice herself completely for Woo Viet's cause. During one night in the refugee camp, Woo Viet kills off a Viet Cong Special Agent that has already murdered several people that came in on the boat from Vietnam. Desperate to get out promptly, he and fellow Vietnam refugee Sum Ching receive help in obtaining forged passports through a contact of Lap Quan's. She is left behind, having gained nothing aside from an eventual hopeful future for two other individuals. Dreams are crushed though when Woo Viet and Sum Ching arrive in the Philippines as she is kidnapped and forced into prostitution...
