The teaching of Korean in the schools  is banned by the Imperial Japanese government.

Napoleon is imprisoned on the island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic Ocean. Here he, ostensibly, dreams of how to escape from his captivity in his last "battle".
In essence, the story is as convoluted as any of the escape myths that have surfaced at various times.
There is plenty of intrigue around the former Emperor, with the poisoning of a trusted aide, the possible double-cross of a trusted officer, the frivolous relationship with a gold-digger lady of the entourage and the uncomfortable role of the British military authorities and especially, the new governor of the island prison.
All this is witnessed and narrated through a British officer tasked with shadowing Napoleon until the final twist of the plot is revealed.

Josef von Sternberg directed, photographed and provides the voice-over narration and wrote the screenplay (from a novel based on actual events by Michiro Maruyama, translated into English by Younghill Kang) about twelve Japanese seamen who, in June 1944, are stranded on an abandoned-and-forgotten island called Anatahan for seven years. The island's only inhabitants are the overseer of the abandoned plantation and an attractive young Japanese woman. Discipline is represented by a former warrant officer but ends when he suffers a catastrophic loss of face. Soon, discipline and rationality are replaced by a struggle for power and the woman. Power is represented by a pair of pistols found in the wreckage of an American airplane, so important that five men pay with their lives in a bid for supremacy.
