Synopsis

Beginning with the reminiscence of the female protagonist, the movie revolve around the romance between a Chinese ballet enthusiast and a Russian scout in Northeast China-much of the area that was occupied by Japanese forces from 1931-1945.

After Japan surrendered on September 2, 1945, some 300 Japanese soldiers and officers fled into the forests bordering China and Russia. Upon being discovered by two Chinese children, the Japanese troops slaughtered the residents of an entire village in northeast China’s Heilongjiang Province, and attacked a Soviet troop camped there, killing about 142 soldiers.
