Learoyd, ex sergente che ha disertato dall'esercito americano, è stato fatto re di una tribù di indigeni del Borneo. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale due militari inglesi vengono paracadutati su quell'isola per organizzare la resistenza contro i giapponesi. Learoyd ottiene la promessa dell'immunità per la sua diserzione e del riconoscimento del suo "regno".
