Nancy Adams (Blake Lively of "Savages") has just withdrawn from nursing school. The gruesome experience of watching her long suffering mother succumb to cancer has devastated her. Nancy just wants to retreat and ponder her future. She remembers her pregnant mother told her about a secret stretch of beach in Mexico that she had gone to while she was carrying her. A friendly native gives her a lift in his battered pick-up truck through the jungle to the beach, and the beach looks like a dream with its azure skies, creamy surf, and faraway islands forming a barrier against the ocean. Initially, Nancy came with a girlfriend, but her girlfriend left her for a cute guy. Alone but content, Nancy swims out into the secluded bay and encounters two other surfer guys. Their English is as insufficient as her Spanish, and they share some waves before they leave. Later, Nancy spots a gigantic rotting whale carcass and investigates it before making her final surf for the day. As she is riding the crest of a wave, a Great White shark smashes into her and knocks her off her surfboard. The shark chomps on her left thigh, but Nancy finds sanctuary on a small outcropping of rock fewer than 200 yards from shore. The sinister shark cruises in circles around her like a war party of Apaches rampaging around a wagon train of pioneers in the Old West. Nancy uses pieces of jewelry to stitch up her chewed up thigh, but she fears the onset of gangrene if she isn't rescued soon.
