When a Canada-born Nisei soldier of the Japanese army, posted in Hong Kong as an interpreter, believes himself to be madly in love with a local married woman, his commanding officer and mentor, an American-born Nisei, pushes the young Canadian to reflect on whether that love is worth risking his life to pursue and just what it is he is truly seeking.
Three Years Eight Months (三年零八個月) is a trilogy of plays by Donald Woo concerning the Canadian experience in Japan-occupied Hong Kong during World War II. From nurses in a field hospital, to English and French Canadian rivals in a POW camp, to a deadly standoff between Nisei soldiers outside Kowloon City; Woo paints vivid portraits of life under occupation and the complexity of war. A uniquely Asian Canadian perspective on bravery, love and identity in wartime.
