Malaya, 1942. Private Charlie Torrance of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders is caught in the rapid Japanese advance down the peninsula. A quiet imperial posting becomes a retreat through plantations and jungle as British positions collapse under mobile attacks, air power and infiltration.

When Torrance’s group acquires sensitive documents, Japanese Captain Mitsumoto begins a determined pursuit. The soldiers must carry the papers towards safety while navigating broken units, civilians on the roads and the disintegration of the defensive system intended to protect Singapore.
