An engaging tale that has a sea captain (Francen) attempting first of all to save his battleship from an attack by an enemy cruiser, and then to save his honor in a court martial. The film moves slowly through the battle scenes and picks up pace as Annabella, who is having an affair with a
younger officer, plays a more prominent part in the story. It climaxes at Francen's court martial with Annabella's indiscreet activities enabling her to testify in his favor and save his rank. (In French; English Subtitles.)
