This powerful prisoner-of-war drama features a stunning cast - including David Bowie in one of his greatest roles - and is the first English-language film by acclaimed Japanese director Nagisa Oshima (In the Realm of the Senses). Set in Java at a Japanese POW camp in 1942, a war of wills - and unspoken erotic attraction - unfolds between a rebellious prisoner, David Bowie, and camp commandant, who is impressed by Bowie's defiance while bilingual prisoner Mr. Lawrence engages in a more adversarial relationship with sadistic sergeant Hana Bi, who finally offers Lawrence a sinister 'Christmas' present.
