Sobre IBD

Drafted into the army at 18 during World War II, Chet Devlin must confront his sexual ambiguity and physical inadequacy. After basic training, he serves as a medic in the Philippines and occupied Japan. He proves himself in combat, and endures the suicide of a buddy who cannot accept the human suffering in Hiroshima. A romantic weekend in Nikko gives him a better understanding of forgiveness and the meaning of war and love.
