				Plot Summary: 
				After the recent loss of her mother, Nancy, a medical student, 
				travels to a secluded beach for some solace and to surf in a 
				spot her mother once visited. While surfing, she is attacked by 
				a great white shark and finds herself stranded on a small rock 
				formation, wounded and only 200 yards from the shore. Nancy must 
				use her wits and limited resources to survive the shark's 
				relentless attacks and find a way back to safety. Dad's Preview: 
				In films of this ilk, it's always a bad idea when an adventurous 
				young person to decide to take off, tell no one and venture to a secluded 
				place to do x. In this case, "x" is ocean surf. Our heroine, 
				Nancy, is catching some waves when a giant shark targets her. 
				She briefly escapes to a rock 200 yards from shore. So begins 
				a game of survival for the young med student. The tide is coming 
				in, so the rock will be underwater soon. It's harrowing, but 
				she's intelligent and resourceful. Can she survive?
