how to film japanese soldier Who was it that lived thirty years hidden in a Philippine jungle, believing that World War II was not over and there was still a chance to win? hiro onoda beyond the horrifying and tragic experience of those 30 years and 10,000 nights in the forest. So much so that this movie is dedicated to him and Werner Herzog wrote a novel called ‘The Twilight of the World’.counterpoint as well as complement to the film.

It was ruled by the French. Arthur HarariExtremely respectful of Onoda’s goals, decisions, and actions. The filmmaker knows the importance of the moist vegetation the character decides to settle in, so he made a movie about the human and the physical space in which he moves. Inseparable from each other. As in ‘Hell in the Pacific’ and other films of the characters exposed to the wild places where conditions force them to live.

Harari counts very well strategic motives The friendship or distance relationship with the men under his command, the harsh days and the disappearing soldiers, the relationship with the natural environment, the threat of guerrilla and fishermen, the Filipinos and most importantly, who took Onoda to the Philippine island, denial of truth: Onoda listens to radio shows with an old transistor and refuses to believe that Japan has lost the war. Was he imprisoned for conviction or for fear of confessing the truth?
