What appears to be a classic prison camp film is in actual reality an espionage-thriller. American prisoners delivered to a Korean POW camp encounter the cruelty of the communist guards, the treachery of a collaborator Master Sergeant (Robert Francis), and spies placed among them by the communists to observe and manipulate them. Among the new prisoners, is an intelligence operative (Brian Keith) sent to infiltrate the camp to gather proof of atrocities committed in the POW camps to be used to as leverage in the Panmunjom piece talks. E.G. Marshall portrays a demur priest imprisoned by the communists who provides spiritual support and encouragement to the troops. The story has several classic examples of communist questioning techniques and manipulation including torture, race baiting, bribery and seduction, but this is just window dressing. The real plot comes from the spies on each side attempting to outwit each other.
