The feature film starring Alan Arkin, Eva Marie Saint Brian Keith, Carl Reiner
The cold war is at its height when a Russian submarine accidentally runs aground off the New England coast. The Captain orders Lt Rozanov to take eight men ashore and find a boat to pull them off the sandbank on which they are trapped.
