Five Came Back, and its supplemental doc Five Came Back: The Reference Films, both on Netflix, also touch on them being forced labor camps - thousands of them..
What I got out of the films was the use of Hollywood directors to paint a dramatic and heroic picture for the folks back home, albeit untrue, yet it worked. The lying bastards, all of them, I'm mostly referring to the 3-letter glowfags.
At least the directors grew from the experience, became more aware, and made better choices for their lives and films. So I don't knock them too hard, as I too was fooled into thinking I wanted to experience war firsthand.
