Tamura est un soldat stationné sur l’île de Leyte (Philippines) vers la fin de la guerre. Présentant des signes de tuberculose, il est rejeté à la fois par son unité et par l’hôpital le plus proche qui n’a plus de place pour lui. Errant sans but précis sur l’île, il ne peut que constater, affaibli et quasi impuissant, la déliquescence dantesque des troupes impériales, dévorées par l’ennemi impitoyable et lourdement armé, la faim et la folie.

Les événements relatés dans les deux parties de La Révolution française sont nombreux. Les producteurs ont voulu relever le défi inédit de couvrir l’ensemble de la période révolutionnaire et donc tous ses principaux événements (ce qui en fait d'ailleurs un film pédagogique malgré son parti pris clairement dantoniste). L'œuvre passe cependant très vite sur la guerre de Vendée, qui n’est mentionnée que quatre fois, notamment par Robespierre et Desmoulins, qui dénonce le massacre d’ « un peuple entier ». Le film se termine sur l’exécution de Robespierre et Saint-Just en 1794 et omet d'évoquer la suite des événements. Toutefois, la Révolution française s'étend jusqu'en 1799, année du coup d'État de Napoléon Bonaparte.
