Based on true events in 1945 during Japan’s occupation of Korea, hundreds of Koreans were forced onto Hashima (Battleship Island) labour camp, where they are imprisoned and forced to mine for coal. Tentions run high between the Japanese soldiers who maintained order with shocking cruelty and violence and the Koreans. Then, just as the island’s dark secrets are revealed, the Koreans plot a daring escape.
