根据二战真实事件改编:32个男人和1个女人被困孤岛 安纳塔汉岛女王事件,别名“安纳塔汉事件”、“安纳塔汉岛事件”。二战中33个日本人——32个男人和一个女人比嘉和子被困在北马里亚纳群岛中安纳塔汉岛的六年间,围绕着两把手枪和唯一的女人的占有权发生了一系列死亡事件,被认为是男人相互杀戮的结果。Josef von Sternberg directed, photographed, provides the voice-over narration and wrote the screenplay (from a based-on-actual event novel by Michiro Maruyana translated by Younghill Kang) about twelve Japanese seaman who, in June 1944, are stranded on an abandoned-and-forgotten island called An-ta-han for seven years. The island's only inhabitants are the overseer of the abandoned plantation and an attractive young Japanese woman. Discipline is represented by a former warrant officer but ends when he suffers a loss-of-face catastrophe. Soon, discipline and rationality are replaced by a struggle for power and the woman. Power is represented by a pair of pistols found in the wreckage of an American airplane, so important that five men pay for their lives in a bid for supremacy.
