Synopsis
Three friends who fought the Japanese in Malaya during World War II end up on opposing sides in the Communist insurgency following the war. Major Ferris (William Holden) becomes a prosperous rubber plantation owner, with beautiful Dhana (Capucine) as his love interest. Ng (Tetsuro Tamba) returns to Moscow to finish his education. When he returns, an even more committed revolutionary than during the war, Dhana is torn between the two. Ferris tries to steer clear of the conflict, but is inexorably drawn in when Dhana is arrested and sentenced to death for supposedly working with the guerrillas. As an additional complication, Candace Trumpey (Susannah York), the daughter of the British Resident, falls into Ng's hands; he threatens to kill her if the sentence is carried out.
