August 15, 1945. A POW camp deep in the Philippine jungle. American prisoners had just heard the most incredible news of their lives—Japan had surrendered. The war was over.
But when they tried to tell their Japanese guards... the guards refused to believe them.
For several surreal hours, prisoners and their captors existed in two different realities. The Americans knew they were free. The Japanese soldiers were still living in a war that had already ended.
This is the true story of that bizarre, tense, and ultimately profound moment when information became power, and enemies were forced to see each other as human beings.
This video covers the experiences of American POWs in the Philippines following Japan's surrender on August 15, 1945. These men had survived the Bataan Death March, years of brutal captivity, starvation, disease, and systematic abuse under the Japanese military's treatment of prisoners.
