English Summary:

The movie begins with old film footage of World War II with a narrator explaining that Germany produced hundreds of U-boats to control the Atlantic. In 1942, groups of U-boats known as "wolfpacks" sank over 1,000 Allied ships. The Germans began winning the war and if they continue destroying the Allies, Europe will fall. In 1943, Roosevelt and Churchill declared that stopping the U-boats was their main priority. With new technology and the United States committed to the war, the Allies begin destroying the U-boats and bringing an end to the wolfpacks.

In June 1943, Lt. Cmdr. Randall Sullivan (Caan) talks about his upcoming mission with Admiral Kentz (Berkeley). Kentz asks about Sullivan's COB Nathan Travers (Macy) and says he's a good man and Sullivan could learn something from him and bids Sullivan farewell. Meanwhile, Travers prepares to leave home as his wife Rachel (Holly) makes him promise to come home safe. Two months later, Travers is on board the fictional USS Swordfish (based on the real submarine USS Swordfish in World War II), captained by Sullivan where they do constant drill exercises. Meanwhile, the fictional U-429 (based on the real U-429 submarine), captained by Jonas Herdt (Schweiger), momentarily survives and destroys an American destroyer. After playing chess with his watch officer Ludwig Cremer (Kretschmann), Jonas receives a message from home that Hamburg got bombed, where his daughter's school was destroyed and there were no survivors, implying that she died. On the Swordfish, XO Teddy Goodman (Gregg) becomes increasingly sick with a rash on his stomach, which the doctor believes is meningitis, a contagious disease that can be fatal in some cases. Unknown to the crew, Sullivan has a rash on his arm, showing that he's contracted meningitis as well.

Hungarian Summary:

Hitler hírhedt tengeralattjáró-háborújának leghevesebb időszakában egy német acélhallal folytatott csatája során az U.S.S. Swordfish legénysége fogságba esik. A német hajón szolgáló katonák nagy részét ágynak dönti az agyhártyagyulladás, híján vannak az optimális tiszti vezetésnek, hogy ebben a kiélezett helyzetben megfelelően láthassák el a legfontosabb feladatokat az életben maradásuk érdekében. A hadifoglyokkal való bánásmód szabályait megszegve, a német legénységnek együtt kell működnie az amerikaiakkal, hogy átvészeljék a veszélyes helyzetet, amely csak fokozódik, amikor egy amerikai repülőgép-hordozó beméri őket. A legénység és a hadifoglyok akaraterejét próbára teszi a túlélésért folytatott küzdelem...
