Aprašymas

During the U.S. involvement in the Viet Nam conflict, Marine Captain Timothy Miller's F-4 Phantom fighter jet is shot down. On the ground in enemy territory, injured, Tim is soon captured. He is taken to an underground Viet Cong infirmary. There the wounded pilot is treated and held prisoner while waiting to be moved to Hanoi to be imprisoned. He encounters nurse Anh who cares for his wounds. An airstrike on the tunnel system causes a massive cave in. As the dust settles, it turns out that he and Anh are the only two survivors and find themselves in the partially collapsed infirmary chamber. Through mutual need, the two sworn enemies band together and dig their way out. In an act of kindness Anh decides to give Tim his freedom for helping her out of the underground tomb. Before parting, Tim gives her his dog tag and makes a promise to her that after the war if she ever needed something, to get in touch with him and he would do anything within his power for her. Thirty years later, early one morning, Tim receives a phone call that will change his life forever.
