Hostile Waters
We were seconds from death and we didn't know it.
Directed by David Drury
A tense, historically grounded Cold War thriller about two submarines on the brink of catastrophic collision, driven by paranoia and the weight of nuclear stakes.
Based on true events, an American submarine collides into a Soviet sub of the coast of America and an ensuing standoff occurs that could lead to total annihilation.
