The film is based on a true story; K-19 is the Soviet Union's first strategic nuclear submarine. The director of the film, Kathryn Bigelow, is the first woman to win the Oscar for Best Director. Captain Alexei (played by Harrison Ford) receives orders to replace the original captain Mikhail (played by Liam Neeson) to command the nuclear-powered missile submarine K-19 during the height of the Cold War. Alexei's mission is to bring this poorly maintained submarine to operational readiness at all costs for its maiden voyage. However, neither he nor the loyal officers and crew aboard anticipate what mission they are supposed to undertake, nor can they foresee the consequences of failure for themselves and the world. At that moment, a nuclear reactor malfunctions, and a dangerous fuel rod is about to melt down, leading to a nuclear explosion that would surely doom all onboard to the depths of the sea. While they are patrolling the depths of the Arctic Ocean, it is the bravery of the crew and the captain's sense of duty to his country and his men that ultimately saves K-19 from an impending nuclear disaster.
