Where is he?

That man in that photo.

Where is he?

My father, my master.

You knew my father?

Oh, yes, I knew your father.

Unfortunately, during the war.

-What is your name?
-My name is James Wright.

I was a wing commander,
Royal Air Force.

I spent time with
your father in Bataan.

My father spoke of you.

Many stories about the Westerner
that knew the Eastern arts.

A great fighter.

A forbidden move.

But now, you come to my dojo,

revive shame for my family.

You bring trouble and dishonor.

Now, Mr. Wright,

I will give you trouble.

Stop!

What is it you've come here for?

Wait, wait, wait...

Let's go! Let's go!

British?

You, only survivor?

No survivors.

Another one. How much? How much?

Shit.

Shit!

Oh, shit.

Move!

Wing Commander James Wright,

Royal British Air Force.

Corporal Hirano was
like a brother to me.

My sincerest condolences.

Sleep well, Wing
Commander Wright.

Today you are victorious,

but tomorrow, you die.

Move!

Randall J. Priniger,
Ludington, Michigan.

Most guys call me "The
Beard," or "Beardy,"

or just plain old "Beard."

I respond to all variations,
non-derogatory variations.

Good to meet you. Wright.

You got a first name, Wright?

Yes, James. Royal Air
Force. I'm a pilot.

This is the Greek's. It's
reserved for the Greek.

Come... Come, come,
come, come. Come here.

Take this one. This
was Simmons' spot.

He's gone now.

Yeah, he's dead.

He got the fucking malaria.

No, no, no. Dysentery.
The bloody flux.

How'd you get here, James?

Was sent on a support mission

to back up the
Allies' last stand.

There were ten of us,

we took off from a banana
boat on the South China Sea.

We were told that the
Filipinos had a foothold

in the peninsula, but I
guess that was bad intel.

By the time we arrived, the Japs

had pretty much
wiped everyone out.

Turned out to be a
bloody suicide mission.

I was hit, ejected over
the water, dead of night.

Somehow washed up here.

So the Brits, are they coming
to liberate us or what?

And you are?

Gabriel Villanueva,

United States Army,
Sergeant First Class.

-Nice to meet you.
-Good to meet you.

He's half-Filipino.

They sent him here to help
train the locals in Bataan.

-It's Ba-tah-ahn.
-That's what I said. Ba-tahn.

So the Brits, are they coming?

I'm afraid not.

They think I'm
dead, they think...

they think we're all dead.

So, no.

Inside the barracks, we
maintain military structure.

We all have rules.

We share work detail,
even burial detail.

Also, we have our
commander here as well.

Who's that? Who's the commander?

Captain Collins. He's the
highest rank among us.

He's down in the A-barrack.
You'll meet him tomorrow.

I don't think there will be
a tomorrow for me, old chap.

That could be any of us.

No, no. I...

I already killed three of
Ito's men, that he knows about.

I'm pretty sure
that by tomorrow,

Ito's got a bullet
with my name on it.

That's, unless anyone
knows a way out of here.

Getting out of the
camp isn't the problem.

It's getting back
in and realizing

there's nowhere else to go.

They all come back,

and that's when they get caught.

You're better off
going on the march.

What's the march?

Anyone strong enough to
work, they stay here.

They had us clear a
runway, now they got us

building a perimeter wall.

They're sending the rest to
another camp 60 miles north,

and they're calling
that the Death March.

What do we know about
this other camp?

-Anything?
-Very little.

Men are dropping
off along the way.

Ones who do make it,

God only knows what's
happening to them.

For all we know, this
is the easy way out.

Or maybe you'll get
lucky and get the sword.

Just better hope it's
a clean beheading.

Sometimes it takes more than
one swing to finish the job.

Yeah, right. Don't
listen to him.

That's Times Square.

When the lieutenant
colonel addresses the camp,

they line us up there.

It's also where
the battles happen.

The battles happen there.

Ito puts all the people

who misbehave center stage.

He puts them in there
with his guards.

He uses it as a training
ground for them.

Up! Now!

These men were caught

with extra rations
inside of their barracks.

An example must be made.

Fight to the death!

He will meet his
end soon enough.

You got rocks in your fist?

Captain.

-Collins.
-Captain. Good to meet you.

That was some impressive shit.

Glad you're on my side.

Drinks on me.

-Beardy.
-Yeah?

-A round for the Brit.
-I'm... way ahead of you.

Kaboom.

A couple sips of this
will cure any ailment.

So, uh...

What happened to
your leg? You okay?

Yeah, took some shrapnel
a few months back.

Believe it or not,
I was the lucky one.

As long as I can do hard
labor, I'll be all right.

Cheers, boys.

Cheers.

May we live to
fight another day.

Oh, yeah.

You like it?

-Tastes like bloody petrol.
-It's my recipe.

It's supposed to
taste like petrol.

Where are you from
in England, James?

I was born in Surrey,
but grew up in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong.

How does that happen?

My father worked there.

Textiles, but I moved back
to England when he passed.

So was Hong Kong
where you learned

all that chop-socky bullshit?

Something like that.

No, I've been lucky enough
to train in a few places.

Uh, Hong Kong,
Thailand, even Japan.

I've been here a while.

Nobody makes it out
of those battles.

Here we go.

You are a skilled fighter.

Who trained you in our ways?

-Did you train in Japan?
-I've trained many places.

You've already revealed
who trained you.

Your technique, most forbidden.

This belongs to you?

Yes.

Your father, war hero?

Yes.

Mine, too.

Give it back to me.

Maybe you'll see
your father again.

My father's dead.

Then you will definitely
meet him again.

Rest well, Commander.

Tomorrow...

you die.

Let's go, Brit. You're up.

-James, would you like a drink?
-No, thanks.

Let's get this done.

Anyone got any water?

Yeah, Beardy. Water.

Uh, thank you.

Ito's head must be
spinning right now.

Why didn't you finish him off?

Ito's men, they're just
doing as they're told.

They don't want to die
any more than we do.

Look, let's get out of sight.

Come to my office.

Look.

Okay. Hang in there, okay?

Because in about a week,

they're going to march
us to another camp.

We'll be out of this hellhole.

Or to a worse one.
If we make it.

I won't make it with this knee.

We need a radio.

If our forces are
still off the coast,

there's a good chance
we could contact them.

You don't think they
know we're here?

Of course they know we're here.

They're not going to waste
good men to come get us.

We're casualties of war.

There's radios... in that tower.

Right?

I'm going to get one.

We're all in.

All right.

Tell me when.

All right, now.

What, you think you
can take me? Come on!

Get back!

-Get back!
-Hey, right here.

Sorry! Sorry! Okay, okay, okay.

Sorry.

Don't move.

Now.

Oh, shit.

Thank you.

Have you come to save us?

I'll do my best.

-Gabriel, talk to me.
-Hold, hold, hold.

Okay, now.

You know we can
only listen on that.

As soon as we try to send
a signal, we're done.

I know.

They'll toss the
barracks to find it.

They won't find it.

Then they'll start
torturing us until they do.

There's more than one of
these things up there.

All right? One of them could
have easily been misplaced.

I hope so.

We all need to get out of here,

and I'm not going
on any bloody march.

Yeah, I know.

You have anything to write with?

Yeah.

Good.

And you speak, right?

I understand more than I speak.

Me, too. Write down
anything you hear,

even if it's just words
that don't make any sense.

Okay?

Mind if I have one of those?

No.

Oh, my God.

You really think your
men are close, James?

We took off from the coast
70 nautical miles away.

How far can they really be?

They know you all
went down, though.

Yes. Well...

We have to hope.

We have to hope.

It has come to my attention

that individuals

have been going into
areas of the camp

that are off-limits.

You're pointing
at the wrong man.

Now is the only chance

to save your life.

Who?

Who?

Lopez.

Let this be a lesson!

Hey, Jonesy.

You don't know nothing,
so stop assuming.

Those boys found a
way outside the fence

without getting caught.

I didn't know them boys.

Bullshit! You've been spider
fighting with those boys

-for weeks.
-Jesus, Beardy,

mind your business.

Look, did those boys find a way

outside the fence,
or didn't they?

-Tell me.
-Okay.

Maybe they did.

Okay, so you went with them?

No.

But they told you,
though, right?

I don't know anything else.

What do you think is going to
happen if you tell me the truth?

You think I'm going
to rat you out?

-Don't be stupid.
-Stupid.

If those boys found a
way outside the fence

without the guard seeing
them from the tower,

I want to know. Tell me.

There's nothing but
jungle out there.

Again, it's not hard to
get out of this place.

Just a matter of a blind
spot and a few snipped wires.

Where?

Shit.

You were gone too long.

You were gone way too long.

Okay.

Tell me something, Brit.
How's the bay looking?

It was dark.

There's a few fishing boats, a
Filipino gunner still smoking,

but the Americans are close.

Hey, how do you know?

I heard Navajo.

-Jesus, Navajo?
-Yes.

We used that back when
the campaign started.

It was hard to hear,
but I'm telling you,

it was definitely Navajo.

Those fuckers have been
chasing their tail,

trying to figure that out.

How did you understand it?

I didn't, but I
know what I heard.

-There was something else.
-What?

I found a glider.

Well, yeah, no surprise.

They were using them
a few months back

to fly men and artillery in.

It was a crash mission.
No one survived.

It could be a way to
make contact, right?

Right?

What do you mean,
like a way out?

-Yes.
-On a fucking glider?

Are you mad? They glide.

There's no fucking
motor in them.

Look, we did training
missions, right,

in the C-47s, tow planes.

Now, let's shift this.

Now, a skilled pilot
could fly low enough

to hook the tow line on
a glider with a flyby.

-I've seen it done.
-Yeah, maybe on a runway,

but not the jungle.

And the runway we cleared is
about a good mile from here.

All we need to do is
set up support posts

either side of the
tow line, right?

Now, if that pilot
comes in straight on

and there's no trees, rocks,
in the immediate vicinity,

50 yards in front,

then I'm telling you that that
glider will go up like that.

I guarantee it.

It sounds like a long shot.

It could be bad if we
don't make the connection.

It could be really bad,
but what's the alternative?

Staying here under
Ito's command?

Then we know we're
really fucked.

We have to do something,
right? And I say this is it.

I trust you.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yes, I heard you.

Okay. Okay.

What do you know...

about Navajo?

Navajo?

Yes.

Indian language.

I know the Americans use it.

You understand this language?

-Why would I understand it?
-You understand Japanese.

I understand fucking German,
too. What's your point?

You find out if your
American friends

understand Navajo, you
earn the favor with me.

Nobody understands
Navajo except the Navajo.

That's the bloody point.

And even if they did,

why would any of the men
want to help you or Japan?

Because saving one's own
life is powerful motivation.

So is saving one's own country.

None of you will ever see
your home, your families.

If you survive this camp,
then you face the march.

If you survive the march,

hell awaits you
on the other end.

Then I guess we have nothing
left to lose then, do we?

Then you will keep fighting.

Oh, I'll keep fighting.

You can keep lining up
your men one after another,

and I'll teach the lot of them,

but it won't be Navajo.

An attack is mounting!

The Americans are still close,

and with Wright still here,
the British are close, as well!

But it's coming!

I don't understand
Navajo too well,

but if my ears are hearing it...

then something is unfolding.

Bite on this. It will help.

They were lucky.

What is coming is much worse.

Uh, no, no, no.

Uh, stay still.
Please, stay still.

How long have I been here?

Nearly two days.

We gave you morphine
so you can sleep.

-How did I get here?
-Ito's men.

It's a strange request.

Only Japanese soldiers
get sent here.

Your wound, it's healing.

I'm not so sure how
long you will stay here.

What's your name?

Theresa.

You know, I've been
wondering about you, Theresa.

Why wonder about me?

You're a prisoner here?

Like us?

Yes.

Yes, a prisoner,
but... not like you.

You're very strong,
you stand up to Ito...

But maybe not that smart.

Yes.

Ah, you're probably right.

-Oh, no, no, please...
-I'm... I'm okay.

-Some... some water, please.
-Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

How long have you been here?

Three months.

They separate me from my family.

Forced me to work.

They told me to
help the Japanese,

but I cannot fight the
diseases with these conditions.

You know this place?

There's nothing.

Just jungles
surrounding this place.

No possibility of escape.

What about Ito? Has
he said anything?

Did you hear anything
that might help?

Ito grows paranoid.

I fear he will not let me
leave this place alive.

Now listen to me.

-I have to tell you something.
-Okay.

Uh... You may...
you may rest now.

What's happening?

A demonstration outside.

Teaching your men what happens
when escape attempts are made.

Your strength is returning.

It's getting there.

Good.

Another challenge awaits you.

Tonight, you rest,

-but tomorrow...
-Tomorrow I die.

Yes, I know.

Why are you doing this?

Why are you getting me healthy
just so you can kill me?

Why? Why, Commander Wright?

I witnessed your
empty-handed technique.

Your sensei taught you well.

You honor him.

You know, if you've already
shown me your best men,

I'm confident I'll make it home.

Eventually you'll just
run out of warriors.

Then what?

You and I?

You?

They're coming.

I listen to the Navajo words.

I do not understand them,

but I fear a convoy is coming.

You should all share that fear.

Why?

Because if this happens,

nobody will survive.

How you feeling?

Oh, you know...

Given the circumstances.

Ito must want you alive.

It would seem that
way, wouldn't it?

Although I can't figure out
if I'm driving him crazy

or just entertaining him.

Maybe a little bit of both,

after that last show you put on.

I've never seen
anything like that.

Have you seen this?

Seen what?

"To all Japanese
ranking officers

of the Japanese Imperial Army.

Be advised, United
States military

and its allies shall
hold harshly responsible

all actions that lead
to the abuse of POWs,

civilian internees, and
civilian non-combatants

who are not accorded
the dignity, honor,

and protection provided by
the rules and customs of war.

The United States military
has been furnished

with unimpeachable
evidence of the degradation

and brutality to which American

and Allied POWs have
been subjected to,

which are in violation

of the most sacred
code of military honor.

"Signed, General
Douglas MacArthur."

Let me see that.

They did a flyby yesterday.

Plane dropped a payload
of those things.

They're everywhere.

Our military wants
everyone to know

that they got eyes
on us and them.

That's great news, huh?

I'm not so sure about that.

Why is that?

According to this,

Ito knows he's in deep shit if
the Allies liberate the camp.

If that American
convoy turns up here,

he's probably going
to go full kamikaze,

probably take us all with him.

-Hey.
-Jeez!

What the hell are
you doing here?

I had to see the
glider for myself.

You still think
it's a crazy idea?

Yeah, of course I do, but
we gotta make contact first.

Listen, as soon as we
send that transmit out,

the Japs are going to know.

You speak Tagalog,
though, right?

Yeah, I do, but so do the Japs.

-But they don't speak Navajo.
-Yeah, well, neither do you.

Right? Do you?

Of course not.

No, but I think I've got an idea

to get the conversation
started. Come on.

-Wait. Wait.
-For what?

-Wait. Wait.
-He's going to talk.

Shut up.

I don't want to kill you.

Understand?

Yes.

Okay.

Go. Go. Go.

Bloody hell. Okay.
Go back. Go. Go.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Five.

Six.

-Seven.
-Eight.

Nine.

-Ten.
-Eleven.

Twelve.

They saw you?

Something like that, yes.

What happened?

Don't worry. We have a plan.

A plan for what?

I'll tell you about
it in the morning.

Whatever happens next,
don't you do a damn thing.

Last night,

several prisoners
left their barracks

and attacked the guards.

I know he was not alone.

It was me.

You?

Yes.

Me alone.

You attack my guards, alone?

You've seen me do it before.

You've got the wrong
man. It was me.

I...

admire your courage, Wright.

But your captain,

he was caught in the act.

Show me.

Show you what?

Forbidden move.

No.

You do forbidden move on him,

or my guards kill him.

I will not kill

a helpless, innocent man.

I made it known

that breaking the
rules of the camp

is punishable by death.

You know what's waiting for
you after this, don't you?

-We are at war.
-We are prisoners of war.

-There are rules!
-In my camp,

there are only my rules.

No one challenges my
authority in my camp!

I challenged your authority

every time I set
foot on that mat!

Or maybe you are here for
just my entertainment.

Do not think that you
are beyond my control.

Why don't you set foot
on that mat with me?

Then we'll see who's in control.

Yes.

Come on.

That's it.

Come on. Make a move.

Your training is
not what I thought.

A wise fighter would know better

than to enter a battle
that he cannot win.

Let's finish this
now! Do something!

Do something! You're a coward!

You're a damn coward!

You're a coward!

Come, fix my hand.

Hey, you all right?

What happened?

We have to do it tonight.

Tonight?

You want to send a radio
signal out tonight?

Yes.

Beardy's identified
a Navajo word

that comes up a
lot. Right, Beardy?

-"Atsah. Atsah."
-"Atsah?" What does it mean?

We have no bloody idea.

But how about if
we pair that word

with some carefully selected
words in Tagalog, right?

The Japs will send themselves
nuts trying to figure it out.

By the time they
realize that "atsah"

has no actual meaning
relative to the message,

hopefully we'll have
gotten the point across.

Are you sure?

Look, once we send the
message, that's it.

They're going to know
that we have a radio.

They're going to
know our location.

Yes, that's why we're
going to send it

from the hilltop
outside the camp.

They'll probably
think it's the rebels.

Look, Ito is becoming
increasingly concerned

about an incoming attack.

With any luck, this will
send him over the edge.

No, no, no. James.

Yeah, yeah, that'll
be bad for us.

You said he's ready
to go full kamikaze.

-Keep him calm.
-Beardy,

if there's one thing
that I've learned,

in battle, it's the calm man
that you should fear the most.

Okay.

Go!

They're out there somewhere.

Okay, I pray this works.

Here we go.

Atsah. Atsah.

Atsah. Atsah.

Atsah.

Atsah.

Yes. Keep going.
You're doing fine.

Atsah.

Atsah.

Atsah.

They're not gonna know.

It doesn't matter. They know
we're not Japs. Keep going.

Okay.

Atsah.

Sunrise.

Atsah.

Eagle has wings.

No engine.

10-4.

Yes!

-We gotta shut it down.
-No, no, no!

We need to give them a location.

Um, say, uh, C-47.

C-47.

We're gonna give away the plan.

How are they going
to know where we are?

-Bright light.
-Bright light. What? Why?

Just say "bright
light." Say it now.

Bright light. Bright
light. Jungle Eagle.

Copy that.

There are flares in the tower.

-Bright light. We can use them.
-Bright light. Okay. Okay.

You think they're going
to piece it together?

Look, they know
we're friendlies.

They know we're
talking under duress.

They'll piece it together.

We gotta get the men. Let's go.

Where is everyone?

Hurry! Hide the radio, quick.

-Shit.
-Hurry. Hide it.

-Gabriel?
-Yeah.

-You okay?
-Yeah, I'm... I'm good.

-Are you okay?
-Can you get free?

Where are we?

I don't know. Can you get out?

Can you free yourself?

No, we gotta get
out of here, though.

Theresa.

-What are you doing here?
-I'm getting you out of here.

What's happening out there?

Shortly after you were captured,

Allied planes began to fly over.

A new battle has begun.

The plane has crashed.

Ito has gone mad. He's
killing everybody.

-Oh, my gosh.
-That's it.

Yes.

-You okay?
-Yeah.

Yes?

How many of you are
there? Just two?

Yes, just Ana and me.

I brought you these.
You might need it.

Oh, you are amazing.

I'll take the knife.
You keep that.

Okay, Gabriel, we need
to get that radio.

We need to get the
men out of the camp.

Copy. Stick to the plan.

You'll take us with you, right?

Yes, we're all going
to get out of here.

Right? Let's go.

Come on! Go! Go!

Get back. Get back.

Oh, my God, they
killed everybody.

Oh, we're fucked.

-The guard tower.
-Go!

-Come on.
-Come on!

Okay, wait here.

Hey.

What are you doing? No, no.

It's okay. Trust me.

This is Sergeant
Gabriel Villanueva

of the United States Army,
requesting immediate extraction.

Over.

Copy.

Tow plane required. I
repeat, C-47 required.

-Look for the flares.
-Copy, bright light.

Contact.

Okay, go! Go! Go! Go!

Get up.

Thanks.

Come on! Come on!

Come on!

Nowhere to run now.

Nobody is running.

Wright, come on!

-We gotta go!
-No! No!

Come on, let's go.

Mayday, mayday. This is
Sergeant Gabriel Villanueva.

-Come in. Over.
-Jonesy, help me!

Get that pole and stick it in
the ground as hard as you can.

Make it secure.

C-47 and escort en route.

Looking for Jungle Eagle. Over.

Copy that. Setting
flares now. Back up.

Copy you, Sergeant Villanueva.

Uh, flare spotted, Jungle Eagle.

Coming in for a closer look,

then re-approach for extraction.

-Over.
-Here we go.

Go! Go!

Everyone in the
glider now! Let's go!

Come on, Beardy.

Let's go, everyone.

Give me a boost.

Okay, we're good! Let's go!

Extraction point identified.

Circling back.

All right, everybody,

make sure you're
strapped in good.

Hold onto each other.

Okay. We're locked in. We're
loaded into the glider.

It's going to be a rough one.

You boys take cover.

Unfriendlies closing
in fast from the west.

We're going to clear
the field for you.

Circling around to
pick you up. Standby.

Here we go. Everybody, hold
on. Grab onto something tight.

Jungle Eagle, we're
on final approach.

This is it!

Brace for impact.

Hold on!

Hold on! Hold tight!

It's up!

We're up! She's holding!

We made it!

-Holy shit.
-We made it.

We made it.

We made it.

Hey guys, guys...

-You okay?
-Yes.

You okay?

You guys good?

This is Sergeant
Villanueva. We are airborne.

Copy that, Jungle Eagle.

Don't worry, lads.
We'll be back.

We'll be back.

What is it you've come here for?

Where is he?

My father passed away
last year, Mr. Wright.

-My condolences.
-Wait!

I want to see.

I said, I want to see!

Please.

If you insist.

Show me.

Wait!

Show me.

I believe this belongs to you.

My father told me that, one day,

that a white man
will come for this.
