Young Raymond Rudford,sculptor, is on trial for slitting the throat of his uncle, who had adopted and raised him after Raymond's parent's died when he was a young boy. The prosecution allows his motive was fear of being disinherited if he married his fiancé, the fair Alicia Atherton, against his uncle's wishes, and the prosecution lays a mountain of evidence against Raymond, including his razor, dragged from an artificial lake on the estate, as the murder weapon; Raymond's bloody fingerprints and footprints found at the scene of bedroom crime, and his bloody shoes, found in his cupboard and bloody monogrammed-handkerchief found under his uncle's death bed. Raymond's only defense is that he could not have committed the crime as he goes into a paroxysm of dread at the mere sight of blood, a phobia he has had ever since childhood when his dog was run over by a lorry and the dog's blood was splattered into his face.

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. La película nunca se hace pesada porque se mezclan anécdotas personales con hechos reales y los actores que interpretan a los marinos tienen gran semejanza física con los protagonistas auténticos.
Tras la primera derrota inglesa, el país se moviliza para construir y botar una gran fragata con la que replicar a los alemanes.
