Thriller. A gripping tale of 20th Century piracy, inspired by real events, Deadly Voyage tells the story of a young African stowaway’s fight to escape a murderous crew after the slaughter of his friends on board a container ship in mid-Atlantic. The claustrophobic tension builds as the hunt is played out in the dark labyrinthine bowels of this floating death ship.
