Lucy (Gish), a battered child, lives in the gloom of London's Limehouse district with her father, Battling Burrows (Crisp), an alcoholic prize fighter. She meets Cheng Huan (Barthelmess), a Chinese poet and idealist, and briefly escapes the world of degradation she has known at the hands of her abusive father. This remarkable film, directed by D. W. Griffith, features one of Gish's most memorable--and touching--performances.
