Return From The River Kwai (1988)

Return from the River Kwai is one of the last untold true stories of World War II in the Far East, a story of soldiers who learnt about courage, and used their courage for survival.
The story begins at the end of the war when a group of starving British and Australian POW's have all but given up hope of escaping from the dreaded railway line that had already cost so many lives.
As the weels of war grind to a halt, the Japanese decide to send their more able-bodied POW's over to Japan in a final attempt for victory.
Crammed into cattle trucks, they begin their journey through the Thai jungle, destined to be imprisoned in the hull of a transport ship sailing through submarine infested waters.
Amongst rebel raids and allied air attacks there seems a glimmer of hope of escaping...
