Spoilers ahead

In Cape Town, a dangerous threat resurfaces as a mutated brood of great white sharks—born from genetic experiments—drifts toward the coastline just as they’re being transported to an aquarium. Dr. Nick Harris [Thorsten Kaye] is a marine biologist brought in to manage the fallout and keep the city safe as these intelligent predators test the limits of their new hunting ground.

Two sisters, Amy [Caroline Bruins] and Samantha [Nikita Ager], are diving near a reef wreck when they’re attacked by a shark; Samantha miraculously survives the encounter, but the incident underscores the scale of the danger now surrounding the shore. The encounter marks the beginning of a grim pattern that will pull every skilled hand into a desperate effort to understand and stop the threat.
