At the dawn of World War II, Karl Ehrlich (John Wayne) is the captain of a German freighter, the Ergentrasse, stationed in Australia, far away from the troubles brewing in Europe. When Ehrlich's friend, British Captain Napier (David Farrar), announces that they're now on opposite sides, the Ergentrasse is interned there in Sydney. In order to reunite his hard-working crew with their families back in Germany, Ehrlich decides to rally them and make a run for it.
At the last minute the German consul general orders Ehrlich to take aboard a passenger, a German spy. The spy turns out to be Elsa Keller (Lana Turner) fiancee of Napier.
Now, Ehrlich must find a way to get to the other side of the world, with food and fuel running low, tension on board, and the entire British fleet in pursuit.
