Idealistic British surgeon Alec Windom (Peter Finch) travels to Burma, where he quickly becomes embroiled in the politics of the region. Favoring the native interests over the imperialists when the workers of a rubber plantation go on strike, Windom supports them and hides their leader in a hospital. His support falters, however, when the workers join a growing and active rebellion. Windom's activities are further interrupted by the arrival of his strong-willed wife, Lee (Mary Ure).

Audience Member Understated social statment on post-colonialism and its lingering effect on the people and powers that be. It's hard not to be sympatheric to Finch's character - a good man who just can't reason with the various forces at work.
