Output (English): In the closing days of World War II, Irishman Murphy Peter OToole is the sole survivor of the crew of a merchant ship, Mount Kyle, which had been sunk by a German Uboat and the survivors machinegunned in the water. Murphy makes it ashore to a missionary settlement on the Orinoco in Venezuela where he is treated by a pacifist Quaker doctor, Dr Hayden Sian Phillips. When he discovers the Uboat is hiding farther up river, under the cover of the jungle, he sets about obsessively plotting to sink it by any means, including using a surviving Grumman J2F Duck floatplane from the Mount Kyle. The floatplane had been recovered, the wounded pilot later being shot dead in his hospital bed by the Uboat captain, in order to preserve the secret of the subs location and, presumably, its action in shooting survivors in the water. Murphy learns how to fly the aircraft in the most daring way, getting it out on the choppy waters of the river and discovering how the controls work by trial and error. Murphy soon finds the Uboats hiding place and attempts to bomb it using homemade Molotov cocktail bombs, which fails. Meanwhile, word has come that Germany has surrendered, but Murphy is obsessed with revenge and makes plans to ram the Uboat with a floating crane owned by the friendly Frenchman Louis Philippe Noiret. This also fails as the Uboat dives under him. However, the submerged Uboat becomes stuck in a mud bank. Murphy uses the crane to recover an unexploded torpedo fired earlier from the Uboat and drops it on the trapped crew, killing them. Murphy is also killed, as the explosion from the torpedo causes the crane jib to pin him to the deck as the floating crane sinks to the river bed.
