Based on the true story of the Polish submarine Orzel (The Eagle), the vessel reaches the neutral Estonian port of Tallinn in September 1939. Under German pressure the Estonians intern the boat, leading Commander Grabowski to plot a daring escape across the Baltic to England, despite confiscated maps and only a scant fuel reserve on board.
