Desperate to break the stranglehold of the North's coastal blockade, the South built and sent into war the hand-powered submarine H.L. Hunley. Armand Assante (as Lt. Dixon, the sub's skipper) and Donald Sutherland (as Gen. P.G.T. Beauregard, the Confederate commander at Charleston) star in this fact-based tale of the Hunley and its crew.
