An offbeat melodrama starring Richard Burton as Biscuit, a RAF officer, Joan Collins as Sea Wife, a nun but one in mufti, Basil Sydney as Bulldog, a brash businessman and Cy Grant as Number Four, a ship's purser, who all end up drifting on a life raft in the Indian Ocean after their ship is torpedoed. Romantic and racial tensions divide the four as they hope for rescue in Bob McNaught's taut film.
