Sinopsis
En los primeros años de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la Royal Navy libra una batalla desesperada para mantener abiertas las rutas de convoyes en el Atlántico y poder abastecer a las islas británicas, enfrentándose así al gran peligro que suponen los numerosos buques de guerra alemanes que, como el Admiral Graf Spee, recorren el océano en busca de cargueros que hundir.
