A foolish wealthy inheritor, whose household is dependent on his wife's competence, finds his estate threatened by a bully neighbor in this allegory of the difficulty of dealing with unchecked aggression and treachery, and of the tension between traditional Chinese customs and early 20th-century European influences. Originally about 100 minutes, only 41 minutes exist.
