The Shallows

The Shallows Part horror, part drama, The Shallows stars Blake Lively who plays Nancy, a woman looking for quiet and seclusion following the death of her mother. Nancy is a nursing student who knows how to work hard, but needs time to process events on a secluded beach. Surfing alone, Nancy is stalked by a Great White. Easily within swimming distance of shore, the shark holds Nancy captive on a surf board with no one within screaming distance.

In a battle of wills and primitive survival skills, Nancy must find a way to safety before the hungry shark ends her life. A tight thriller with heart, The Shallows keeps viewers guessing on the edge of their seats until either Nancy or the Great White decide to surrender.

The beach has meaning to Nancy, and as the story unfolds this connection to her dead mother may be her saving grace.
