Passage to Marseille
During World War II, a French ship finds five men drifting in a small boat. Once aboard, the men tell the ship's captain, Patain Malo, that they are convicts who escaped prison, led by Jean Matrac, to fight in the war. As the ship nears its destination in Marseille, France surrenders to Germany, but Malo decides to hide the prisoners. When traitorous Major Duval tries to overtake the ship, Matrac and the others work to defeat him.
