This is a movie which the students of Serangoon Garden Technical School made, depicting the life of ordinary citizens under Japanese rule. It attempts to capture the fear and terror which they had to live with each day, being abused verbally and physically by the Japanese soldiers who humiliated them by making them bow whenever they saw a Japanese soldier or sentry. The Japanese ruled with an iron hand, often with total disregard for the sanctity of human life. Singapore was a virtual prison.
