Description
During 1982, on a quiet summer evening, a young boy goes for a ride on his new bicycle to the local beach. While sitting there hidden behind a sand dune he witnesses the beating, rape and murder of a beautiful young girl. The steamship S.S. Deepwater departs Portland, Maine Harbor on a summer night in 1940. The ship's normal cargo of coal also includes a large mysterious stainless steel container that is on a journey from Poland to Brazil. Aboard the S.S. Deepwater is an attractive, middle aged woman who is in charge of delivering this container; she soon becomes attracted to the Captain of the ship. Prior to the ship departing, two mysterious men are added as passengers but these men are actually German Secret Service and they want the stainless steel container. The ship follows the coastline to avoid any potential German submarines, but their luck runs out a few miles off of Long Island, New York. Before the ship sinks the passengers depart the on lifeboats with the exception of the two German guards, who have commandeered at gun point, the Captain's launch, the woman, two crew members, and the stainless steel container.
