In September 1942, a German U-boat fired on and sank a British troop carrier, The Laconia. As the U-boat Captain, Werner Hartenstein, listened to the cries of the drowning passengers he realised the ship had been carrying Italian prisoners of war, Polish guards and British women and children, and took the only course of action he could to save as many people as possible. This epic two part drama tells the story of Hilda Smith, a German national fleeing Nazi Germany, Thomas Mortimer, an officer aboard The Laconia and Hartenstein, alongside the actions of the Germans, the British and the Americans.
