Synopsis
Lan Yanzhi (Rouge) is a privileged banker's daughter in Shanghai and a student activist who mistakenly comes into possession of a letter from the Japanese Army in 1937. Song Mian, an undercover agent for the Kuomintang, mistakes her for a spy. To prove her innocence, Yan Zhi agrees to infiltrate the home of her best friend, Feng Man'na, and help Song Mian track down a mysterious traitor. Finding the spy turns Yan Zhi and Man'na from friends to bitter enemies, as both get involved in the confused fighting in late 1930s Shanghai featuring Japanese, Nationalists and Communists. Unusually, the chief Japanese agent, Aoki, is very sympathetically portrayed.
