synopsis
The setting for this conventional wartime drama by Silvio Amadio is a damaged submarine resting on the ocean floor. The sailors inside the sub are caught in the worst possible situation. There seems to be no way to repair the craft, and the escape hatch is not functioning normally. Because of the damage it sustained, only one man on the submarine will be able to leave through the hatch. As the tension mounts and the time draws near for only one of them to escape, the men are not heroes but just a group of frightened human beings.
