In 1984, a mass grave has been discovered in Canton, China. As the bodies are being recovered by workers, an elderly woman and her granddaughter arrives to the site. They are greeted by the officials and reporters, who know that the elderly woman had been present when the mass grave was first created by the Japanese during their occupation. The elderly woman has flashbacks of the time, when Chinese resisters to the occupation had been shot and buried, but she had gunned down one of them herself. Seemingly betrayed by the man she loved, she had told the Japanese that she would collaborate with them if they would let her kill the man. Later that day, the woman passes away. In a church where her funeral is held, people from all over the world returns to see her off. One of them begins to remember the past, what had happened in the country in the 1930s.
