About Fifteen Year Old Captain
Dick Sand travels aboard the "Pilgrim" when, following dramatic events, the ship becomes without a captain. Fate has it so that, to keep all sailors in peace, he shall command the ship. All accept this arrangement, even Negoro - whose resentment will add treachery to circumstances already difficult to take the ship to safe harbour. To a point the task may prove impossible...
Directed by Jesús Franco, Fifteen Year Old Captain leans on a strong ensemble — José Manuel Marcos, Edmund Purdom, Marc Cassot — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about action titles of 1973.
