A grim, slow-burn survival drama set against the brutality of WWII, following weakened soldiers hunted through the jungle as they confront both external threats and internal fractures.

March 1945. The Japanese army launches a sudden and extremely brutal assault against the French garrisons in the Far East. Thousands of civilians and soldiers were executed. Hunted by the Japanese enemy, a column of legionnaires already weakened by alcohol and disease decides to enter the jungle to try to reach China and the allied bases.
