American-born Agnes Keith (Colbert) and her British husband Harry Keith (Patric Knowles), live a pleasant life in North Borneo with their young son George in the 1930s. In 1942 the Japanese Army invade Borneo and intern the small British community in camp Sarawak, where the men and women are separated. During the Japanese invasion of Sandakan, Agnes has a miscarriage. Based on Agnes' memoirs this story depicts her life in Borneo in the period immediately before Japan invades in 1942, and her subsequent internment and suffering - separated from her husband Harry, and with a young son to care for. For three years, malaria and sadistic prison wardens will test their physical stamina. Agnes suffers greatly upon her separation from her husband, Harry. She has a miscarriage and escapes an attempted rape by one of the prison guards during her internment. In September 1945 Japan surrenders. In a true-life happy ending, the Keith family are finally reunited. (105 minutes - 1950 - Black & White - 4:3)
