Morituri
Must mean something unusual
Directed by Bernhard Wicki
Produced by 20th Century Fox, Arcola Pictures
A tense WWII espionage thriller about a reluctant spy forced into a dangerous double-life aboard a cargo ship, grappling with moral compromise and the cost of survival.
A German living in India during World War II is blackmailed by the English to impersonate an SS officer on board a cargo ship leaving Japan for Germany carrying a large supply of rubber for tyres. His mission is to disable the scuttling charges so the captain cannot sink the ship if they are stopped by English warships.
