WWII POW camp in Philippines

Tools    





I'm having trouble remembering this. Maybe based on a true story, a civilian family is sent to a POW camp (Luzon, I think) during WWII? Pretty grim. Waiting for MacArthur to return. Not The Great Raid, but produced in past decade or so, I feel. Thanks.



Good guess, thanks, but it was definitely set in the Philippines, because I remember them mentioning Luzon. And it may be from the pov of a child, I'm thinking a girl, who possibly grew up to write a book about it? I hope I didn't dream it.

OHForums, it sounds a lot like that 2012 book. Galarth, the movie I'm (barely) recalling was definitely set in the Philippines, not China.
