Crónica meticulosamente reproducida de las dos batallas navales que libraron alemanes e ingleses en mares suramericanos. La primera de ella la ganaron los germanos (Coronel) y la segunda (Falkland o Malvinas), no sólo la ganaron los ingleses, sino que destruyeron buena parte de la flota alemana. (filmaffinit)
Mezcla de docudrama y de reproducción minuciosa de estas dos contiendas, con el añadido de las estrategias empleadas por alemanes e ingleses por medio de mapas y también con el aliciente de presentar algunos de los buques que lucharon en cada ocasión.
