The story follows a vacationing couple, David Sanders (Nolte) and Gail Berke (Bisset), who are scuba diving off the coast of Bermuda and discover a shipwreck.

Their discovery attracts the attention of a local drug kingpin, Henri "Cloche" Bondurant (Gossett Jr.), who wants the morphine. The couple enlists the help of Romer Treece (Shaw), a local lighthouse keeper and treasure hunter, to recover the treasure and deal with the criminals. A series of conflicts and underwater battles ensues, leading to a climactic showdown at the wreck site.
Poster Details
The poster shown is a specific style, often referred to as a UK Quad or US horizontal/subway sheet format. It is a collectible piece of memorabilia from the film's original release. The striking blue background and minimalist design focus attention on the title and the lone diver (Jacqueline Bisset's character), who became famous for her appearance in a wet white t-shirt in the film's opening sequence.
