Prisoners of Hope (1996)
Honest, Simple Account of a Dark Moment in Recent History
26 May 2013 - 1 out of 1 users found this review helpful.
The focus of this film is on those who made the excruciating sacrifice of interment in Vietnamese POW camps and the many coping mechanisms they utilized to survive their arduous ordeal which also included their faith to endure the torment. The simple recollection of the former POW's will capture your heart. Sadly, it is a travesty that the documentary is lambasted because criticisms are hurled at the film because the interviewees expound upon how their faith assisted them with their imprisonment. The critical reception is likely from persons who are in torment about their own religious beliefs as oppose to a valuable documentary that earnestly retells the horrific account of a few brave men.
