This 1938 French film won the Grand Prix du Cinema Award of 1939, and was first shown in the U.S., at NYC's Cameo Theatre in January, 1940, as "SOS Mediterranean" with a pared-down running time of 81 minutes. The US version had French dialogue with English titles.
The scene of action embraces Tangier, Toulon and the Mediterranean, where Pierre Fresnay, Rolf Wanka and Kim Peacock, cast as captains of French, German and English boats, respectively, unite to rescue the passengers of a neutral boat that is about to be engulfed in a cloud of poison smoke released by a smuggling ship.
