The True story of the bridge on the River Kwai
Retells the story of Allied prisoners of WWII and Asian laborers who painfully built the Thailand-Burma Railway along the Khwae River of Burma. This filmed production reveals that the World War II engineering project consumed the lives of 100,000 men and was very different from the events depicted by the famous movie, The Bridge on the River Kwai."
