The Dead Sea—the lowest place on earth and one of the wonders of the world—is drying up at an alarming rate. Three men—a Jordanian, an Israeli, and a Palestinian—feel they cannot just stand by, so they put together a group of international swimmers to do something that has never been done: swim across the Dead Sea from Jordan to Israel. Amidst suffocating politics, the film follows this extraordinary and dangerous action, hoping to achieve media exposure that will drive the region's countries to take action. One swim at a time.
