In 1941, country girls Minnie Hodgson and Margot McNee set sail from Perth, Australia for Singapore in search of adventure. The girls are full of excitement and keen to do their part working as nurses to the fallen soldiers in a time of war. What they encounter is an army of new friends and the terrors of a city under siege. When the Japanese attack and Singapore falls, they are forced to flee aboard the Vyner Brooke. The ship is bombed, resulting in utter devastation. Separated in the mayhem, one group of nurses finds themselves in prisoner-of-war camps for the duration of the war, surviving on their wits with humour, dignity, loyalty and determination. But another group of young Australian nurses are washed ashore on Bangka Island, where they will meet a fate that must never be forgotten.
