Die Bevölkerung von Port Alamo, Texas, lebt vom Garnelenfang. Eines Tages kommen vietnamesische Flüchtlinge in die Stadt. Durch ihre eigenmächtige Fischerei werden sie bald zu gefährlichen Konkurrenten. Der ehemalige Vietnam-Soldat Shang (Ed Harris) schwingt sich zum Wortführer der Einheimischen auf und macht Stimmung gegen die vermeintlichen Eindringlinge. Ausgerechnet seine Ehefrau Glory (Amy Madigan) stellt sich im Gegenzug auf die Seite der Vietnamesen. Die Spannung steigt, bis der Rassenhaß zu gewaltvollen Konflikten führt...

Magyar
A vietkongok Saigon felé közeledtek, a dél-vietnami rendszer napjai meg voltak számlálva. Az összeomlás előtt az amerikaiakat támogató, és a vörösök elől menekülő vietnamiak egész hada kapott letelepedési engedélyt az Egyesült Államokban. Jelentős részük a texasi öböl vidékén kezdett új életet, folytatva régi mesterségét, a halászatot. Sok helyi halásznak azonban nem tetszett mindez. Féltették tőlük a munkájukat, a megélhetésüket, a régi jó életüket. Így hamarosan rasszista felhangoktól sem mentes összeütközésre került sor az új jövevények és a helybeliek között.

Pretty Baby summary, synopsis, reviews
Pretty BabyDrama1978

Internationally acclaimed director Louis Malle has taken a taboo subject - child prostitution - and has created in Pretty Baby a film of humanity and beauty. E.J. Bellocq (Keith Carradine) is a photographer obsessed with the prostitutes in New Orleans' red-light district. Violet (12-year-old Brooke Shields), a young girl in 1917, bewitches Carradine with her curiosity and naive coquettishness. Malle's level-headed treatment of this controversial theme and exceptional performances by the entire cast (especially Susan Sarandon as Violet's prostitute mother) makes Pretty Baby a must-see for all serious film fans.
