The story

At the beginning of World War 2, in the interests of national security, the British Government made the decision to arrest all Germans in the UK, as well as many Jewish male refugees, whom the British feared might have been German spies. In 1940, a large group were rounded up and sent to Prisoner of war camps in Australia, aboard the HMT Dunera. Amongst them, are Morrie Mendellsohn (Bob Hoskins), a British fishmonger and Alexander Engelhardt (Joseph Spano), a concert violinist.
