An encounter between two old acquaintances sends a jaded marine biologist and a guileless underwater photographer crashing back into each other’s lives again. On an assignment to survey an uninhabited island marked for commercial development, EJ and Dani find themselves both at odds and drawn to each other again. The assignment, and their newly rekindled relationship, gets complicated by their discovery of a strange giant squid that was thought to have gone extinct. As tensions rise on the island due to increasing government pressure against their own desires, EJ and Dani are caught in the riptide of their complicated relationship.
