In British Malaya during the Japanese advance on Singapore, a patrol of British Army soldiers are holed up in an abandoned store hut in the jungle.

Tension rises after their radio malfunctions and a Japanese soldier stumbles upon them. A gripping character-driven drama, laced with pathos, The Long and The Short and The Tall portrays how war can affect man’s attitude to others, as they show kindness and cruelty in equal measure.

This amateur production of The Long And The Short And The Tall is by special arrangement with Samuel French Ltd.
