The film is based on Duke Ellington's novel "A Night in the Jungle in Harlem" after more than 60 revisions. Although it is an introduction to the matter between two pairs of black and white brothers, it is actually an introduction to the open and secret struggle between underworld gangs. As far as the style of the entire film is concerned, the director broke through the underworld movie model established by himself, using flowing images, precise sound and creative editing to show a world of underworld in Harlem in the 1930s.
