Inspired by the movie, which is based on the true story of Chuchu and Luo Xiaoman, a Chinese boy and girl . . . in 1940. Chuchu and several other students are sent by Gen. Von Dietrich to work as servants at Nazi headquarters in the Yakovliv Monastery. The general was also a medical doctor who did tattooing as a hobby. He decided to use Chuchu for his greatest "masterpiece". This saved her life because when the general learned that the Third Reich was doomed instead of having her executed with the rest of the prisoners he had her dumped in a field so that his masterpiece with live on. But the large tattoo on her back was a matter of shame to her the rest of her life.940.
