In the brutal World War II Battle of
Saipan, Sergeant Joe Enders (Academy Award winner Nicholas Cage) guards - and
ultimately befriends - Ben Yahzee (Adam Beach), a young Navajo trained in the
one wartime code never broken by the enemy, the Navajo Code.
But if Yahzee should fall into
Japanese hands, how far will Enders go to save the military’s most powerful
secret?
John Woo directs this "exciting"
(Premiere) "against-all-odds battle adventure" (The Toronto Star) written by
John Rice and Joe Batteer and inspired by the true story of the Navajo soldiers
whose courage and sacrifices helped win the war in the
Pacific. |
