Onoda: 10,000 Nights in the Jungle

Lists: Adventure, Drama, War

Brief Synopsis: "Japan, 1944. Trained for intelligence work, Hiroo Onoda, 22 years old, discovers a philosophy contrary to the official line: no suicide; stay alive whatever happens; the mission is more important than anything else. Sent to Lubang, a small island in the Philippines where the Americans are about to land, this role will be to wage a guerrilla war until the return of the Japanese troops. The Empire will surrender soon after; Onoda, 10,000 days later."

MaddWolf Hope85 - Onoda becomes not just an anomaly, an oddity, but an image of a generation lost and a promise forgotten.
