Plot

Jack Lane joins the Royal Australian Navy and trains on Tingira. His brother Stanley discovers a German spy ring amongst the social set in Sydney. They capture him and take him to a secret island outpost. Germans are about to destroy an Allied radio station but it manages to alert HMAS Sydney beforehand and the ship attacks German sailors. A half-caste islander, Kana (Alma Rock Phillips), leads HMAS Sydney to the spies' island. A landing party attacks and kills the spies but Kana is killed.

Production

For Australia and How We Fought the Emden were films made by rival companies but were put together for release in Britain. It is unsure what company did this but the films were made with the approval of both the Australian and British governments.[2]
