A thrilling action adventure based on the novel by Clive Cussler!
Dirk (Matthew McConaughey) and Al (Steve Zahn) have been friends since
kindergarten, having also gone through college and the Navy together. The two
now work for a former admiral traveling around the world and salvaging treasures
from the sea with the National Underwater and Marine Agency (NUMA). In his spare
time, Dirk is obsessed with the 150-year-old mystery of the Texas, an Ironclad
battleship that reportedly disappeared from Richmond, Virginia during a Civil
War battle and turned up in Africa. When a Confederate coin, allegedly one of
only five minted, surfaces in Mali Dirk and Al plan to travel there from Lagos,
Nigeria on the admiral's yacht to investigate.
Meanwhile, in Lagos, Dirk meets Eva (Penelope Cruz), a doctor for the World
Health Organization (WHO) who believes that there is a plague building in Mali.
Since the WHO is unable to find another way into the war-torn country, Dirk and
Al give Eva and her colleague a lift up the river. Once in Mali, Dirk, Al, and
Eva quickly find themselves embroiled in trouble as she pursues the source of
the disease...
