Broken Blossoms or The Yellow Man and the Girl (1919)
Cheng Huan komt als missionaris van het boeddhisme naar Engeland, waar hij al snel gedesillusioneerd raakt door de apathie en xenofobie. Hij begint een winkel, waar op een dag Lucy Burrows binnenstapt, die onderdrukt wordt door haar tirannieke vader en die haar pas nog in elkaar heeft geslagen, waardoor zij in de winkel flauwvalt.
