Captivating restored footage of the dramatic sinking of Austro-Hungarian battleship SMS Szent István. At 3:15am on 10 June 1918, the battleship was spotted by Italian torpedo boats, and was torpedoed by MAS 15 nearby Premuda island in modern-day Croatia. As she flooded, she began to list to starboard. Hours after the attack, the Szent István finally capsized at 6:05am.
Film footage and photographs of Szent István's last half-hour were taken by Linienschiffsleutnant Meusburger of Tegetthoff with his own camera and by an official film crew. The battleship's sinking was one of only two on the high seas to ever be filmed, the other being that of the British battleship HMS Barham during World War II. Proceeds from the film of Szent István capsizing were eventually used to feed children in Austria following the ending of the war.
