Anchored just off the island, a special crew from National Geographic is trying to capture the holy grail of marine photography; a great white predation on a seal, from the shark's perspective.

They’ll develop into a predator so fierce with the speed, strength and sophisticated hunting skills to attack the legendary great white shark, the largest predatory fish on Earth. This is a clash of the titans – but who will win?
