Home of the Brave

In a tense World War II setting, a reconnaissance platoon is dispatched to a Japanese-occupied island, where simmering racial tensions threaten to boil over among the white soldiers and their African American comrade.

A black man's struggles in World War II mirror those of his peaceful life, as shown in a flashback, and center on his perilous adventures with four white comrades on a treacherous Japanese-occupied island.
