A True Story Of Ultimate Courage And Ultimate Faith.

Oscar-Winners John Mills and Richard Attenborough lead a stellar cast in Morning Departure, a "gripping... poignant" (Weekly Variety) tale of true-life undersea adventure that takes place entirely in a submarine and "builds to a stirring pitch" (Los Angeles Time).

It was supposed to be just another ordinary morning for the crew of the British submarine Trojan, until an unforeseen disaster changed their lives forever. After accidentally hitting a mine in peaceful British waters, a terrible explosion sends the mighty sub to the ocean floor, with 12 men trapped alive inside! As panic and claustrophobia set in, these brave souls must use all of their combined intelligence, courage and faith to find a way out of the darkness of the deep and to feel the sun shine on their faces again, no matter what the cost!
