An unprecedented wave of shark attacks swept across the eastern coast of Australia. This new film examines that particular summer of 2008. One man left only tattered pieces of his wetsuit behind. A Navy diver lost a leg and a hand. Several surfers and swimmers were badly wounded and as sightings mounted, shark sirens were sounded daily and beaches evacuated. Australian shark experts and fishery managers scrambled to understand what was happening. Could it be that that the gradual dwindling of the sharks’ natural prey due to overfishing has brought man to the top of the shark’s food chain? Will this be a prelude of things to come?
