1941年太平洋戰爭爆發，台灣人大量被動員投入戰場。終戰時這些台灣軍屬有173人被當戰犯審判，21人被判「絞首刑」，其餘被關進集中營。他們在政府的漠視、遺棄、監控下，背著沉重的枷鎖，在底層打拼討生活。透過影音紀錄幾近凋零的二戰台籍戰犯，與這些老人家們作心靈的對話，從常民的觀點檢視歷史，並引出戰爭與人性之間的一些問題。

Heat Sun tries to discuss some issues on wars and humanity. The Pacific War broke out in December, 1941, and many Taiwanese were mobilized to the battles. But while some died on the battlefields, most of them were neglected, forsaken or even monitored after the war, struggling for survival. They dare not look back on their experiences during the war, describing them as the darkest memories of their lives. After they have lost their so-called motherland, they don’t know where to go anymore.
