In the midst of the Russo-Japanese War, the city of Port Arthur is under siege. The once-thriving metropolis has been reduced to rubble, as Japanese forces unleash a relentless barrage on the Russian stronghold. Major Kuhn, a U.S. military observer, has witnessed firsthand the devastating effects of the war, and his account paints a grim picture of the city’s fate. As the Japanese closed in, Major Kuhn joined forces with the Russian Red Cross, led by the enigmatic Patti, who made a final appearance on the concert stage, raising a staggering $37,000 for the cause.
