In the late seventies celebrated director Francis Ford Coppola, his cast and crew ventured into the dense jungles of the Philippines to begin work on what would eventually become his masterpiece, Apocalypse Now.

Plagued with adversity, one of the most influential films ever made had one of the most notorious shoots in cinema history that few survived unscathed.
