After World War II, a group of Tokyo prostitutes unite under a strict code: they banish pimps, defend their abandoned building home, and punish those who give away sex for love. Maya, a young woman who lost her family, joins the group. When Shin, a wounded thief who killed a G.I., seeks refuge, the women initially help him recover, but he refuses to leave. As Maya falls in love with Shin, she discovers she can feel again, becoming more human, yet also putting herself and her livelihood at risk. Can the couple escape Tokyo and build a life together?
