A life raft carrying the survivors of a medical ship that was struck by a German torpedo and sunk is floating in the North Atlantic in late 1945, close to the conclusion of World War II. After being stranded for days and running out of food, the survivors—American cook Bigelow, American mechanic Jackson, British nurse Jane Prescott, British codebreaker Gerard Faraday, Australian soldier Sinclair, Russian sniper Alexander Teplov, and Malone, the American hospital ship captain—are abruptly passed by a Nazi minesweeper. The party boards the passing ship, but Malone is killed by the ship’s propellers after falling while ascending.
