Guy implodes inside diving bell underwater

Inspired by a poem by Cristina Peri Rossi, this intimate film explores the distance that can only exist between lovers.

A civilian oil rig crew is recruited to conduct a search and rescue effort when a nuclear submarine mysteriously sinks. One diver soon finds himself on a spectacular odyssey 25,000 feet below the ocean's surface where he confronts a mysterious force that has the power to change the world or destroy it.

Sundquist and Eidsvold play the two deep sea divers, who agree to do a quick unscheduled dive before taking their Christmas vacation, to help an oil company who's got a oil-valve caught in a trawl. The dive is to take only 5 minutes, and the divers will get a nice bonus. But things go wrong. The diving bell gets tangled in the trawl, and while trying to hoist up the bell, they tear asunder the oxygen tanks. Suddenly the bell is stuck, and the crew is unable to get it up. Caught in a diving bell at the bottom of the sea, rapidly running out of air, both the divers and the crew on the surface are racing against time to find a solution; how to get the two men up ALIVE!

A man pushes himself into tighter and tighter spaces as he attempts to escape his submarine.

A fascinating pictorial document: On an old, cluttered work ship, a man is helped on with a bulky, old fashioned diving suit. It's a complicated process, many layers and sections are carefully applied. He goes over the side. Some men row out to what looks like a wrecked barge and set dynamite. Then the diver returns and now laughs and acknowledges the camera. The other men, now safely away, blow up the barge.

Breathe underwater, rise to the head, flood. Each individual, and only he, knows how long he can stand without air in his lungs. In the video, the action of immersing yourself over and over again.

A man in a diving suit emerges.

While researching a large valley lake, a man encounters something unexpected.

On those long undersea voyages, horny men in such close quarters can only hold out for so long. It's not just the submarine that's going down ...
