Short description

Based on true events, an American submarine collides into a Soviet sub of the coast of America and an ensuing standoff occurs that could lead to total annihilation.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The film is based on real events that occurred with the Soviet atomic submarine K-219 in 1986, on the eve of the first meeting between Mikhail Gorbachev and Ronald Reagan in Reykjavik.
  • The actual commander of the K-219, Igor Britanov, opposed this film and filed a lawsuit, stating that he had not authorized the use of facts from his biography in the film. As a result, in August 2004, Britanov won the case and received a penalty from the film studio, the amount of which was not disclosed to the public.
