This assiduously researched drama depicts the struggles of American captives in Hanoi's notorious Hao Lo Prison--known ironically as The Hanoi Hilton. Together the GIs fight a decade-long battle to survive beatings and hopelessness during the Vietnam War. Michael Moriarty stars as Lt. Cmdr. Williamson, a determined pilot who won't let spiritual and physical deprivation defeat him. (official distributor synopsis)
