About Submarine I-57 Will Not Surrender
In World War II, the commanding officer of a sub, against his will takes on board two Western diplomats, to take them to the Canaries and arrange an armistice. When they get there, peace has been declared, but the sub's crew don't know as their radio has failed. They send their passengers ashore and go out to face a final battle...
Directed by Shūe Matsubayashi, Submarine I-57 Will Not Surrender leans on a strong ensemble — Ryō Ikebe, Tatsuya Mihashi, Akihiko Hirata — 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 war titles of 1959.
