Men on the Sea Floor (Italian: Uomini sul fondo) is a 1941 Italian drama film directed by Francesco De Robertis.[2] De Robertis specialised in semi-documentary films, in this case portraying the crew of an Italian submarine trapped after an accident. De Robertis's technique of using non-actors in roles has been credited as an influence on the development of Italian neorealism.

It was known as SOS Submarine.
