Onoda: 10,000 Nights in the Jungle

"The long Japanese film, with three hours of duration, 'Onoda: 10 000 Nights in the Jungle' has a very clear goal: to show how war affects thinking, social sensitivity and emotions of those involved in a war. To do this, we follow the journey of soldier Hiroo Onoda who, as soon as Japan surrenders at the end of World War II, retreats to the jungles of the Philippines to continue the war himself for another ten thousand days. Although it has an exaggerated duration, beyond what is necessary, 'Onoda: 10 000 Nights in the Jungle' knows how to develop Onoda's personality and show the effects of violence."
