The Hill

Durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, un camp disciplinaire situé en Libye et dirigé par le sergent-major Wilson accueille cinq nouveaux prisonniers. Le terrible et très cruel sergent Williams est nommé par Wilson pour en faire ce qu'il estime de vrais soldats. Sous un soleil de plomb et face au défi d'une colline artificielle installée au milieu du camp pour les malmener, les cinq hommes vont devoir affronter l'autorité du sergent Williams.

In a British Army "Glasshouse (British Army)" (military prison) in the Libyan Desert, prisoners convicted of service offences such as insubordination, being drunk while on duty, going AWOL or petty theft etc. are subjected to repetitive drill routines as a punishment in the blazing desert heat.
