When an American G.I. (Kiefer Sutherland) meets an aspiring showgirl (Patsy Kensit), they begin a passionate affair where desire has no limits. This film is based on a real-life case that made headlines in British tabloids in 1944 — The Karl Hulton/Elizabeth Maud Jones murder case, also known as the Cleft Chin Murder Case — which implicated the showgirl and G.I. in the murder of an English cab driver.
