The bridge will put Rangoon in contact to Bangkok, and will be crossed by a train in twelfth May 1943. Colonel Nicholson refused to work beside his soldiers because it collide with the Geneva Convention. And the problem is the British soldiers don’t want to work except below the order of their leader, and Colonel Saito keep forced because if the target not reached, he shall kill himself. The discharge endeavor started when an escaper named shears, an American soldier which got caught with the British before. He came to the British post in Ceylon and arranged some plans. The climax scene will take a place around the bridge, and there’s a kind of non parallel conflict between Nicholson and Shears, Nicholson want to maintain the bridge because he build it with his own hand, while Shears want to blow the bridge because it will cut the Japanese transportation and would give liberation for the British prisoner.
