Dark and controversial Japanese war drama. Sakura Nishi (Ayako Wakao) is a young nurse posted to an army hospital during the Sino-Japanese War in 1939. Raped by her patients, she is punished by the high command for daring to make a complaint and sent to a brutalised frontline unit. There she meets a morphine-addicted surgeon, and the damaged couple try to seek solace in each other as the world around them collapses into violence and despair.
