内容介绍 :	Wartime guerrilla Pong Man-ho is on the run from the Japanese. He hides out in Guangzhou where he meets Poon Siu-ha, a dance hall escort girl. They fall in love but since Siu-ha is under the control of the procures, Kwok Kwai-fa, the lovers decide to run away. The war ends. Man-ho's friend, Chan Fook, has to return to Hong Kong. Chan Fook leaves an inn for Man-ho to run. Man-ho lends money for Siu-ha for her to return to Hong Kong. Once in Hong Kong, Siu-ha is cheated and sold to a brothel. An old man, Uncle Seven, desires Siu-ha and proposes marriage. Siu-ha agrees as a solution to her predicament. Man-ho goes to Hong Kong in search of Siu-ha, eventually meeting her on the streets. As Uncle Seven poses an obstacle, the two agree to meet in the East Asia Building the next day. When Man-ho returns to his residence, he receives orders to go to Nanjing. Unwilling to leave Siu-ha, Man-ho disobeys the order. Chan Fook secretly informs Siu-ha about the orders. Siu-ha gives money to Man-ho for his departure. A jealous Man-ho misunderstands Siu-ha and strangles her to death. When Chan Fook rushes to the scene to tell Man-ho the truth about Siu-ha, it is too late. Unable to amend his faults, Man-ho rushes to the East Asia Building to jump off the roof. (Extracted from the film handbill)
备注 :	Film review, 'The film is created on objective reality thus this is a neo-realist work if its events were not typical, they would easily be passed off as the sort of routine newspaper reports about social problems that we read of everyday' (Ling Ho, 'Thoughts on "The desperate man's jump to death"' Jianguo Daily, 1948/12/27)
