Synopsis:
John Ford's epic story of boiling passions amongst the burning sands, in which twelve battered, fighting men battle it out to the death. Set during the First World War, a small British Army group is set out on a mission to the Mesopotamian desert but disaster strikes when their commanding officer is shot by an Arab sniper. Unaware of their intended destination, their Sergeant (Victor McLagen) takes charge and decides to head north to meet up with their brigade.
Sheltering at an oasis, they wake up the next morning to discover their lookout dead and their camp surrounded by Arab tribesmen. Left at the mercy of the Arabs and being slowly picked off one-by-one, the men begin to crack under the desert heat and life-or-death situation. As their supplies run low Sanders (Boris Karloff) begins to doubt his sanity but unbeknownst to the soldiers a rescue patrol is only days away...
