Synopsis

Set in and around U.S. Clark Air Base in the 1980s at the time of the Philippine’s People Powered Revolution, Steel’s Gold tells the story of U.S. Air Force Captain William Steel, an intelligence officer with serious authority issues, and his hunt for billions of dollars’ of lost WWII Japanese treasure hidden in the mountainous jungles of the Philippines. He's got the help of his best friend Jo Jo, a Kuntaw martial arts expert; Cham, a quirky Thai military officer with connections in the Asian underworld; and a rag-tag band of pygmy Negritos. But he’s not the only one hot on the trail. Right-wing American commie-fighters, corrupt CIA officials, President Marcos’s henchmen, ruthless bandits, rebel soldiers, and old enemies conspire against and collide with Steel as he and his compatriots go for the gold. Even a WWII Japanese Army officer, unaware of his country’s surrender forty years earlier, launches guerrilla assaults on Steel’s jungle treks. Steel's love life is a mess, and he can’t seem to go more than a couple of days without someone beating the crap out of him. Nothing finding a little gold wouldn’t make better. Or so Steel thinks, until violence rocks the only home he’s ever known, and he finds himself questioning what, and whom, he’s willing to sacrifice to get his hands on treasure.
