Live adaption of Ooka Shohei‘s same-named seminal novel about war, produced after two decades in germination. Although an indie film with Tetsuo: The Iron Man director Tsukamoto Shinya handling six roles including director, lead actor and cinematographer, the world premiere took place at the 71st Venice International Film Festival in the official competition.
The island of Leyte in the Philippines at the end of World War II. Tubercular private Tamura (Tsukamoto) wanders through the jungle while being tormented by hunger and menace from enemy soldiers after being driven from a field hospital overburdened with wounded soldiers.
