In 1937 Shanghai, twenty-one-year-old Pearl Chin and her younger sister May are living the life of luxury from their fathers well-to-do rickshaw business. But all that comes to a crashing halt when he informs them that due to his gambling away their fortune, they will have to be sold as brides to California suitors. Trying to find love with the strangers they have married and adjusting to life in America, they are determined to remain true to who they are-- Shanghai girls.
