The literal translation of the title of this movie is: Saint Paul's Hospital's Puzzle.
This movie is based on the true story of post revolutionary era intrigue of the communist-nationalist spy games. However, what is important is not the story itself, but something else, something far less obvious.
West had sided with the nationalists during the Chinese civil war and for this reason, communists had deep distrust of west and anything western in the pre-revolutionary era was considered negative by Chinese government, including hospitals. This movie, in the depiction of communist-nationalist intrigues, made a breakthrough in recognizing the fact that not everything west done to China is bad, for example, setting up hospitals in China and introducing modern medicine to China are good.
