About

This screening of Das Boot will be of the 208 minute Director's Cut. It will be presented in German, with English subtitles.

Wolfgang Petersen’s war epic Das Boot is a tense and claustrophobic realisation of life on a U-boat in WWII. The boredom, terror and filth of war is depicted with gripping intensity as the German sailors on board reckon with their orders and the tyrannical politics of their government.
