Plot Summary

A visually stunning, eye-opener of a movie that will change the way you see the oceans! Driven by a life- long fascination with sharks, filmmaker Rob Stewart has set out to dispel the myth that they’re bloodthirsty, merciless monsters who prowl the seas in search of tasty swimmers.

Filmed in gorgeous high definition video, Sharkwater will take you into the most shark-filled corners of the world’s oceans, exposing not only the true nature of sharks themselves, but the way human interference has affected this noble predator and turned it into our prey, its population slowly dwindling.

In an effort to protect sharks, Stewart teams up with a rogue environmentalist and sets off on an unbelievable adventure, to battle shark poachers on the high seas across the globe. Join Stewart on this incredible journey of courage and determination to make us see sharks, and ourselves, in a whole new light.

Winner of many Audience and Critics choice awards at film festivals around the world.

Sharkwater is an amazing film. The footage is stunningly beautiful and the story is dramatic, strong, and as true as it gets. Sharkwater will open your eyes. I loved it and I think it's a must see for everybody.
