A group of NAVY SEALS and oil drillers are trapped under the ocean during a storm, and cut off from the ships above them. The group discovers that intelligent life actually exists, and it is underwater instead of in outer space. The confined space and realization that aliens exist effects each character differently. Good or evil intentions are the question asked not only by the humans but by the aliens as well. Human nature is tested as each person decides what they are willing to risk in order to protect others. The tension finally boils over, and the entire group is put at risk through selfish acts of a select few.
