Richard Burton and Joan Collins star in this sumptuous British romantic drama set in the Pacific during the Second World War.

As the survivors fight to stay alive, the tensions – and attractions – between them grow stronger until they can’t be contained any longer. Two of them share a fateful secret, which can never be revealed. The result is murder – and the start of a long, desperate search for true love…
