Submergence

Love Has No Limits.


Submergence
A British secret agent and a deep-sea scientist meet while on holiday in Normandy, and a wild and passionate romance ensues, even though they will shortly be going their separate ways and lives. The agent ends up in Somalia where he is captured and subjected to interrogation, while the woman goes deep-sea diving off the coast of Greenland. As each deals with the solitude of their position and occupation, they think back to the time in Normandy, which provides the lifeline to keep them going.

What the Critics say

24.com
Gabi Zietsman quote iconSubmergence was a waste of talent that’s more interested in drowning it audience than providing an enthralling story, and the only thing that kept the rating from 1-star is the intensity of Vikander and McAvoy in the only interesting part of the movie.
