Explore the real-life events that inspired the Tom Clancy novel and film, The Hunt for Red October. In 1975, disgruntled Soviet officer led a mutiny on board a state-of-the-art Russian warship. Unlike the movie captain portrayed by Sean Connery, this maverick sought to cause a revolution in his own land and almost sparked a war in the process.
Synopsis:

In 1984, an insurance salesman-turned-author named Tom Clancy published his bestseller, The Hunt for Red October. The book, and the 1989 film starring Sean Connery, depicted the hijacking of a Russian nuclear submarine by a Soviet captain determined to defect to the West. Yet, as this documentary reveals, the story that inspired Clancys fiction was equally dramatic.
