Film Description:
A ship’s cook goes down with his ship at 102 feet underwater. Everyone on board is drowning – except him. Stranded in a small pocket of air – in water to his neck, in pitch darkness, deep inside the ship’s wreck – he awaits death, while the crabs begin to eat him, and the oxygen slowly disappears.
Watch the true story of the miraculous rescue – when a diver arrives three days later to remove the drowned sailors from the ship. The newly educated diver Nico accepts the challenge from his team to go down and salvage the corpses – knowing it will give him a lifelong trauma to handle 12 dead men – alone inside the dark wreck.
Against all odds, the diver miraculously finds the ship’s cook alive, having survived for three days under extremely life-threatening conditions, deep below sea level. However, despite thinking that now he’s saved, the cook’s problems just start arising.
With life at stake, the newly trained diver, Nico, must embark on an extremely complicated and life-threatening rescue operation, to get the cook out through the ship’s narrow passages – deep under water.
Told through authentic footage from the divers helmet cameras and with the authentic radio communication, one of today’s most heroic and miraculous underwater dramas takes place – at 102 feet below sea level.
