The dangerous streets of Nanjing throw together a group of opposites, a flock of shell-shocked schoolchildren, a dozen seductive courtesans, and a renegade American posing as a priest to save his own skin, or so he thinks, all seeking safety behind a walled cathedral. Trapped by marauding soldiers, over the next few days the prejudices and divides between them will fall away as they unite around a last ditch plan to protect the children from impending catastrophe.

Contents: Jinling shi san chai.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Very sad movie. submitted by noni on January 14, 2013, 11:30am A beautifully photographed, well-acted, well-paced, well-directed movie that is horribly sad. It has more than one hero, and some unimaginable sacrifices that make helping the children possible.

Trigger alert submitted by jjdijkstra81 on June 15, 2014, 4:17pm ***Trigger alert**** If you cannot stand watching brutal acts of sexual violence, either don't rent this, or have someone with you who can fast forward for you. Other than that, I complete agree with Noni's review here.
