This documentary about the Bataan Death March was filmed largely at the last two reunions of ADBC (American defenders of Bataan and Corregidor). This WWII documentary feature film includes incredible stories of survival and hardship. Writer-director Dan Traub interviews American and Filipino P.O.W.s who had no alternative but to surrender to the Japanese in April of 1942 in the Philippines on the Bataan Peninsula, and on May 6th, from the Island of Corregidor. What followed the Bataan Death March was years of enslavement at forced labor camps, to benefit Japanese companies. Many died. Incredibly, no reparations or compensation were ever paid to these men, neither by the Japanese or the American government. This true story of courage, determination, incredible strength and hope is told the P.O.W.’s themselves-supported by incredible footage and still photos from their own collections, from the ADBC Museum in Wellsburg, W.V. and from the National Archives.
