East of Sumatra

Overview

Duke Mullane oversees a tin mine in Malaya and sets off to a remote island to establish a new operation in the dense jungle. He finds a warm welcome from the locals, particularly the enchanting dancer Minyora, who is betrothed to the island's ruler, King Kiang. However, a string of mishaps turns Kiang's demeanor to one of aggression, leaving Duke trapped with his team, Minyora, and Lory, his former love, who is now set to marry his superior. Tensions rise as loyalties and romantic entanglements intertwine in this precarious situation.
