Synopsis

At the start of WWII, Salvatore Todaro commands the
Italian Royal Navy submarine Cappellini. One dark night
in October 1940, while navigating in the Atlantic, he
comes upon an armed merchant ship sailing without
lights. He shoots at the ship and sinks it. The Commander
then makes a decision that was destined to go down
in history. He takes the 26 shipwrecked Belgians on
board his already crowded submarine and aims for the
nearest safe harbor, as prescribed by the law of the sea.
To make room for them on board his submarine, he is
forced to navigate on the surface of the water for three
days, visible to the enemy forces and endangering his
life and that of his men.
