Dura historia real sobre una de las víctimas del llamado "ferrocarril de la muerte", construido por mano de obra forzada y prisioneros de guerra durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Para conseguir mandar apoyo a sus tropas en la Campaña de Birmania de 1942, Japón decidió construir unas vías que cruzaran desde Tailandia hasta el lugar donde se hallaban sus aliados, cruzando Bangkok y Rangún. Para llevar a cabo la obra de tal magnitud se dispuso de trabajadores asiáticos y presos enemigos británicos, australianos, holandeses y estadounidenses, entre otros. Muchos de ellos murieron en condiciones inhumanas, otros perecieron de cansancio y agotamiento, y de los pocos supervivientes llega una visión de primera mano de la realidad que se vivió allí.
