Madama Butterfly
The 1920s. A fifteen-year-old girl from Japan dreams of a world filled with "love and freedom"—a world where a woman is happy, loved, and loving, dressed in silk dresses, with modern hairstyles and pearls, with rights, freedom, and the choice to be rich, independent, modern. This world is called America, and the girl's dream is the "American Dream."
