SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Based on the true story of two married scuba divers left behind
by a careless boat crew, then speculating on the shark-infested
journey that followed, this drama is so raw and chilling you
may find yourself clinging to the festivalgoer next to you.
Featuring an unapologetically tight lens on the drifting
couple, along with photography that uses no digital effects,
the film's unique flow of time slows and bends as water and
sky change color and mood around them. Actors Blanchard Ryan
and Daniel Travis grip you with white-knuckled performances
that stay true to the last surprising frames, leaving the
audience to wonder in parallel play-along, "What would
I do?" --- Joseph Beyer (Sundance)
