Fanny (Nina Proll) is training in Vienna when she meets Yunlong (Wang Zhiwen), a Chinese policeman. The two form an instant connection and, against the wishes of everyone else in her life, Fanny moves to China to be with him. Soon afterward, however, the cultural revolution in China forces the two into hiding to escape persecution by the communists. Yunlong is eventually caught and imprisoned, leaving Fanny alone in a foreign land with no idea what it will take for her to survive.
