In August of 2000, the Russian nuclear submarine Kursk was on maneuvers in the Barents Sea when a torpedo malfunction ripped open the hull, sinking the vessel and killing the bulk of the crew. The harrowing fate of the few survivors waiting for a rescue that never came-and of which their government waved off international offers of assistance-is memorably depicted here. Matthias Schoenaerts, Léa Seydoux, Michael Nyqvist, August Diehl, Max von Sydow, and Colin Firth star. AKA: "Kursk." 117 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English. Two-disc set
