The film tells the story of Chinese guerrillas fighting for the Allied cause in Burma during World War II. During the construction of a military supply road like the Ledo Road, the project is sabotaged by an English nobleman who is a Nazi agent.
Using a scientific device, the English nobleman is instrumental in the coordination of a Japanese airstrike on supply trucks attempting to cross a key bridge. Anna May Wong, playing the role of a Chinese school teacher, reveals the schemes of the traitor, and brings about his destruction at the hands of Chinese peasants armed with picks and shovels.[2]
Alpha Video released the film on region-1 DVD on June 28, 2005.[3]
