Last breath has elements apollo 13 Y perfect stormIn life-saving invention, this is the only chance that an impossible rescue situation does not become tragic in the difficult elements. Prerequisite: The diver dives to the bottom of the North Sea and is left with only five minutes of oxygen in completely dark, frozen water when the umbilical cord ruptures due to marine turbulence and equipment failure. No chance of surviving at least thirty minutes. The screenplay was written by Mitchell Lafortun and produced by Paul Brooks and David Brooks Early Bird Productions, Stewart le Maréchal, Al Morrow, Anna Mohr-Pietsch and Jeremy Plager. CAA Media Finance manages domestic sales and FilmNation Entertainment manages international sales.

“100 meters away, five minutes of gas; “It’s all about a group of people you work with, coming together as a team, overcoming insurmountable opportunities resulting in impossible survival,” Parkinson told Deadline. “It refers to many ideas; This unlucky boy whose ability to hang, as well as the strength of the human spirit, is at the bottom of the sea, trying to hold on to it as long as possible. It becomes this incredible race against time that will play out in real time in the movie. It’s still one of those places where people don’t know how to survive.”

Saturation diving is one of the high paying jobs designed for the few people who can stay in a small space, keep their emotions alive, and don’t panic when their body tissues are overflowing with the gases that allow them to survive. Pressures at a depth of 100 meters when performing repairs on oil rigs. It’s such an incredible pressing process that it takes four days to bring the divers to the surface and restore the pressure balance, otherwise they explode when they pass the “vortices”. Found with his umbilical cord severed to provide oxygen, heat, communication and light, the original diver is named after Chris Lemons, and the actor who plays him will be acting soon. Parkinson said skill and good luck come to the rescue.

“He stayed awake for five minutes on oxygen when the umbilical cord ruptured,” he said. “Suddenly in frozen water and that’s something you feel right away, and it’s absolutely black with no electricity. It was scary, but Chris managed to do everything in his power to save himself. If you’re panicking or walking the wrong way after being kicked from a structure… you have to get to the top of the structure to have any chance of survival. So he stood on the ground and thought, where is the structure? Where am I going? By blind chance, he chose the right direction. Badly chosen, no one will go to earth and die an undoubted death. “There’s all this incredible piece of luck, resilience, creativity, and sheer strength to cling to, and it’s all happened, people are doing the right thing to save it.”

This involved an automated ship management process and the captain and crew on board when a ship capsized.

“The entire crash occurred on the bridge because the positioning system, called dynamic positioning, was disabled,” Parkinson said. Said. “The impossible happened when the 10 levels of extreme security measures were disconnected, which should have been impossible, but it did. So the ship is moving in this twenty feet of wind as a result of a big storm with 35 mph winds and causing the ship to spin out of control. They don’t know when they will regain control of the ship. The first thing that happened was that the captain decided, like never before, to take control of the ship manually. He took a big risk but thought he had no choice but to do it. If not, we will never do it again. It was at that time that he learned how the ship was navigating in splendid navigational conditions.

Another hurdle the captain faces is that this is his first cruise and he must love the sinking crew and the captain must force him to rely on himself. Surviving on the seafloor is up to Dave (Liu), who must maintain his composure and emotions as he races against time to survive.

“He survived because Chris was in this sweet spot where he ran out of oxygen and was unconscious in the right place because his body temperature dropped to exactly the right level for him to stabilize,” Parkinson said. “If he had more gas, his body temperature would drop and he would die of hypothermia. “If they had less gas, they would suffocate.”

And if his saviors hadn’t done everything right, death would have been inevitable.
