Film di pura fantasia ambientato nella Seconda guerra mondiale, quando la battaglia sottomarina per il controllo dei mari era giunta al culmine. Dopo un cruento e spettacolare combattimento, il sommergibile americano Swordfish viene affondato dall'U-Boot nazista 429 e i pochi sopravvissuti vengono fatti prigionieri. A bordo della nave nemica gli americani cercano di sabotare le manovre degli avversari, ma un'epidemia di meningite mette in pericolo la sopravvivenza di equipaggio e prigionieri. Bloccato sul fondale a causa dei ripetuti attacchi alleati, il sottomarino tedesco si trova ad affrontare una sfida senza ritorno: i soldati dei due schieramenti dovranno unirsi per salvare le loro stesse vite.

U-429 - Senza via di fuga è un film di guerra del 2004 diretto da Tony Giglio.
