In 1898, amidst the Filipino uprising and the war with the United States, the Spanish garrison of Baler takes refuge in the local church, the only stone building in town, awaiting reinforcements. For 337 days, they resist the rebels, hunger, disease, betrayal, and despair, even after Spain loses control of the archipelago. 'Slaves of Honor' narrates this crucial episode in the history of 19th-century Spain, offering an intimate and exciting vision of the heroes of the Baler siege.
