Synopsis

We are in October 1941, in the middle of the 2nd World War, a German submarine is sent to a patrol mission from La Rochelle, France. At that time all live with the anguish stuck in the body, but even more when they are sending on missions of this type. The days pass slowly inside the submarine by boredom, but prefer that the horror they experience out of it. All goes well until they discover that the mission that has been sent is a suicide mission. Then coexistence will become much more complicated. Critically acclaimed West Germany where the Nazis, although they are not exactly the good ones, themselves are the protagonists and are not horrible people.
