Film Description

Wartime propaganda film based on the capturing of eight American airmen by the Japanese. The men are held in prison, awaiting execution. However, the Japanese promise to show clemency if any of the Americans are willing to provide valuable military secrets. How will the airmen, many of whom have already been badly tortured, respond to this offer?
