What Port of Flowers is
One imagines the director had to start somewhere. Two swindlers descend on an unsuspecting port town at the beginning of the war. Their grift is foiled when they unexpectedly develop consciences. The film is as much a testament to the director's faith in people as it is a product of wartime cinematic mandates.
