Das Boot
The Boat
The claustrophobic world of a WWII German
U-boat; boredom, filth, and sheer terror. It is 1942 and the German submarine
fleet is heavily engaged in the so called "Battle of the Atlantic" to harass and
destroy English shipping. With better escorts of the Destroyer Class, however,
German U-Boats have begun to take heavy losses. "Das Boot" is the story of one
such U-Boat crew, with the film examining how these submariners maintained their
professionalism as soldiers, attempted to accomplish impossible missions, while
all the time attempting to understand and obey the ideology of the government
under which they served.
