Das Boot [videorecording] : the director's cut / a Bavaria Film production in association with Radiant Film ; written and directed by Wolfgang Petersen ; produced by Günter Rohrbach.

Das Boot (other title)

Summary:

Autumn, 1941: 43 young German sailors aboard U-96 enter the war against Britain. They seek adventure, respect and heroism. For them, this voyage is for glory. For their captain, a seasoned war veteran at the young age of 30, it is a mission against enemy destroyers in a blood-red sea that can devour a ship and its crew without leaving a trace. For you, this is an authentic undersea adventure inspired by the actual experiences of a WWII German photojournalist. You are deep below the waves, listening for the rumble of warships overhead, the click of depth charge detonators, the sound of your own heart beating out of your chest, holding your breath and hoping for just one more minute to live.
