In early 1938, internationalist fighter Norman Bethune (played by Tan Ningbang) traveled across the ocean to China to support the Chinese people's war of resistance against Japan. Chairman Mao met with him in Yan'an, and the military region's health department appointed him as a medical adviser. Bethune discovered that the medical conditions in the border areas were much worse than he had imagined. He asked the commander (played by Wu Xue) for permission to establish a demonstration hospital in the rear and to bring doctors from various divisions for training. Despite the personal dangers, he went to the front lines to perform surgeries on severely wounded soldiers. Due to a lack of necessary medical equipment, many seriously injured soldiers could not receive timely treatment, which left Bethune anxious and determined to return to Canada. However, sudden fighting blocked his path home. He told Doctor Fang (played by Cun Li) and Secretary Tong (played by Ying Ruocheng) who accompanied him: "I won't leave; they need me more here." After the Battle of Hwangtuling, during a surgery on a soldier, he accidentally cut his finger, and tragedy inevitably occurred... The film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Zhou Arou.
