Overview
When her traveling theatrical group goes broke, Poppy, an actress in the troupe, finds herself stranded in Singapore. She’s reduced to working in a bar in the seedy part of town as a “hostess”, where she meets a down-on-his-luck Englishman. While drunk he gets into a fight, and is forced to kill his opponent in self-defense. The girl helps him escape and goes to Sam, a shady plantation owner, to try to get them out of Singapore. However, Sam has his own plans for Poppy, and they don’t include potential rivals for her affections.
