Synopsis

During World War II, a newly commissioned submarine suffers damage in its early days. A certain captain claims that he can sail the ship to a shipyard and take command. As they slowly head over there, they find a group of U.S. military nurses strand-two to board. The situation becomes even more complicated when they try to apply a primary layer to the submarine; they are forced to mix white and red paint to have enough. When an air strike forces them to flee the shipyard, they discover that they encounter the only pink submarine in the world, now sheltering five women in the narrow spaces of their ship.
