Onoda, 10 000 nuits dans la jungle

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.

The Empire will surrender soon after; Onoda, 10,000 days later.
