Though its infamous sister ship has received most of the attention over the last 90 years, the Britannic met its end in a manner eerily similar to the Titanic. A true story that has remained largely untold, the Britannic was the largest passenger liner in the world when it sunk, and the circumstances surrounding its demise are just as mysterious as those of the Titanic, as it sustained damage almost identical to that of its sister ship. Though it has never been discovered exactly what caused the Britannic to sink, the film is based on historical evidence and imagines that the liner's demise was the doing of German spies on board the boat. Along with this, the film follows the problems that a budding romance between a young Briton and German brings on the couple, as their countries are in the midst of fighting WWI on opposing sides. A touching and fascinating historical drama, BRITANNIC provides the first look of its kind at the little known story of this ill-fated ship.
