War Is Hell!

DramaWar

Set during the Burma Campaign of World War 2, this is the story of courage and endurance of the soldiers struggling at close quarters against the enemy. The film examines the moral dilemmas ordinary men face during war, when the definitions of acceptable military action and insupportable brutality become blurred and distorted.

VIBE

A stark and unflinching look at the brutal realities of jungle warfare. It's a tense, character-driven drama that forces you to confront the moral compromises made when survival is the only objective.
