Onoda: 10,000 Nights in the Jungle
Available on Prime Video, Tubi TV, iTunes, Amazon Freevee
Japan, 1944. Trained for intelligence work, Hiroo Onoda, 22 years old, discovers a philosophy contrary to the official line: no suicide, stay alive whatever happens, the mission is more important than anything else. Sent to Lubang, a small island in the Philippines where the Americans are about to land, his role will be to wage a guerilla war until the return of the Japanese troops. The Empire will surrender soon after; Onoda remains 10,000 days later in this incredible true story.
