Hantsubaki

The beautiful 21-year-old female conductor Sadako (played by Minamino Yoko) was sold to Yanghuilou, a brothel, by her gambling-addicted father. Although Iwasa (played by Toshiyuki Nishida), a brothel intermediary, does a low-level job, he is upright and kind. He has always cared about Sadako's growth. Sadako, whose nickname is "Peony", is talented and intelligent, and soon becomes the number one courtesan in Yanghui House, and is highly sought after by the upper class. Niouzan, a small figure in the underworld, accidentally encounters Mudan. He sympathizes with her fate and is deeply attracted to her, so he hates Iwasa. At that time, Mudan will be ransomed by the playboy Tada Hiromori (played by Bailong), and the helpless Nioyama kidnaps Mudan and flees to a small fishing village. Iwasa rescued Mudan, but found that the person Mudan liked was him. On the other hand, Tada Hiroshi, who dislikes peonies, plans to sell them to Manchuria. The fate of the poor girl wanders with the dark times... This film is adapted from the original work of Miyao Nobiko.
