Woman's Eternal Sorrow (1950)

Wing Kwong and her mother have long depended on each other. Mother is forced to take up the profession of the flesh to survive, but Tiger Cheung, a rascal, makes life difficult for both mother and daughter. Their plight moves Ah Hong, a neighbour and an olive hawker, into letting Wing Kwong solicit customers by singing beside his stall. But Tiger appears to extort Wing Kwong's hard-earned money and submits her to constant beatings. Wing Kwong runs away and is tricked into a brothel. Mother is heartbroken after Wing Kwong's disappearance. She suffers a nervous breakdown, and only A Hong's help and support help keep her going. A Hong promises to look for Wing Kwong. One day, A Hong puts up his stall in front of the brothel where Wing Kwong works. Alerted by A Hong's voice crying out to solicit customers, Wing Kwong and A Hong are finally reunited. To pay off Wing Kwong's redemption fee, mother and A Hong save up each hard-earned penny and manage to save $200. Wing Kwong is redeemed from the brothel, and they plan to move somewhere else. Life is relatively peaceful in their new locality. Wing Kwong is sent to school, but the school director expels Wing Kwong on the ground that her mother is working as a prostitute. Mother and daughter are forced to re-think, making plans to move to a place where they are not known. Tiger Cheung turns up at the moment when they are packing to leave. A clash occurs, and Tiger Cheung is killed by her mother. She is arrested and sentenced to jail. A sympathetic teacher agrees to bring Wing Kwong home and look after her.
