A packed cruise ship traveling the Atlantic is hit and overturned by a massive wave, compelling the passengers to begin a dramatic fight for their lives.
VIBE
This is a relentless, claustrophobic plunge into pure terror and desperation. It feels like a non-stop fight for breath, a visceral experience of chaos and the will to survive against impossible odds. The mood is one of constant, harrowing peril, punctuated by moments of heartbreaking loss and fleeting hope.
