1942 - The Japanese Imperial Army had bombed Singapore, crippling its British colonisers.
The British surrender, leaving the citizens to survive under their villainous Japanese conquerors.
A group of citizens are forced to a disease-plagued acreage in the jungles of Malaya. Under the watchful eye of ruthless Japanese guards, the group slave on impoverished soil to eke out a living.
Malnutrition, diseases and death, ravage the detainees. The Japanese keep the life-giving medicine for themselves.
Joe Monteiro soon finds himself relentlessly pursued by the Japanese in the treacherous jungle. Maria, the girl he loves, is in the throes of death. On the verge of death himself, Joe must get the quinine to her...before it's too late.
The Japanese and the jungle stand in his way.
"If the Japs don't finish him, the jungle will."
