They Chose China

The Korean War ended In January 1954. Captured POWs were free to return home, but 21 American soldiers decided to stay in China. Back in the USA, McCarthyism was at its height, and many believed these young men were brainwashed by Chinese communists. Oscar®-nominated filmmaker Shuibo Wang tells the fascinating stories of these forgotten men, showing us footage from the Chinese camps as well as interviews with former POWs and their families.
