Nurses on Bataan during World War II are unexpectedly trapped in a battle zone. The individual characters emerge to offer their reaction to war: strong minded doctor, her restrained and poised assistant and the volunteer nurses: a vacuous Southern girl, a swaggering bully, a couple of timid aesthetes, an ex burlesque girl and the inevitable spy. A caustic and compelling commentary on the effects of war on ordinary human beings.
