From IMDb: “This conspiracy thriller is set in the early 80’s, the beginning of the Norwegian Oil Boom. Enormous oil and gas deposits are discovered in the North Sea and the authorities aim to bring the oil ashore through a pipeline from depths of 500 meters. A professional diver, Petter, obsessed with reaching the bottom of the Norwegian Sea has the discipline, strength and courage to take on the world’s most dangerous mission. But a sudden, tragic accident changes everything. Petter is sent on a perilous journey where he loses sight of who’s pulling the strings. Gradually he realizes that he is in way over his head and that his life is at stake.”

Poster: C / C+

Review: (#1) The first design is the American version and lacks anything remotely intriguing. A submersible diving. So Exciting. (#2) The foreign design is more detailed, more interesting, but still not very compelling. Together, they don’t form a very sound basis for drawing audiences.

Trailer: C+

Review: A political thriller without the politics and without the thrills. The blend of languages is a nice, authentic touch, but the film never establishes its premise in a way that audiences will easily respond.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
