Amid Chinese troops crossing into North Korea in 1950, a company commander clashes with a heroic fighter pilot while united in battling American forces along the Yalu River.

This is a cinematic feature film recut from footage originally shot for the 40-episode TV series by the same name in Chinese and called "Stride Across The Yalu River" in English. The plot and story are the same, but in a more concise, 2-hour format.
