Set on the Philippine island of Leyte in 1945 as the fragmentary remains of the Japanese army engage in a swift retreat from advancing Allied forces, the film stars Eiji Funakoshi as Tamura, a tubercular Japanese soldier struggling to survive. Denied a billet by his squad or a bed by the hospital because of his lack of a food ration, he wanders the island plain, like many of his comrades, foraging desperately for food. At an empty village where wild dogs roam the streets, he opens a church door that disgorges a river of corpses. After killing one of the wild dogs that roams the streets feasting on the carnage, the soldier meets a couple that has returned to the area to recover a cache of salt, a precious commodity. When the woman begins screaming insanely at him, Tamura panics and shoots her, continuing to fire wildly at her fleeing husband while seizing the sackful of salt. Tamura then heads into a wooded area where even greater horror awaits. (officiële tekst van distribiteur)
