Gli invasori - 49° parallelo (1941)
Un sottomarino tedesco viene affondato nei pressi delle coste canadesi. Dell'equipaggio si salvano soltanto un ufficiale e alcuni marinai. Sotto la guida dell'ufficiale, fanatico nazista, il gruppo decide di attraversare il paese per passare dal Canada negli Stati Uniti, che sono ancora neutrali. Per raggiungere il loro scopo i militari non esitano a usare i mezzi più feroci: con minacce e violenze si appropriano di quanto necessario per sopravvivere e muoversi e non esitano di fronte all'omicidio, riuscendo ad impadronirsi anche di un piccolo aereo che era sulle loro tracce. Col velivolo essi credono di avere finalmente la salvezza a portata di mano, ma un errore li fa precipitare in un lago dove alcuni muoiono. Dopo altre traversie il manipolo si assottiglia sempre più.
