Shadows in a Desert Sea (1993)

This visually stunning film takes viewers into the Sea of Cortez, a thousand-mile stretch of water along Baja California and the Pacific Ocean. A work of the legendary underwater filmmaker Howard Hall, the film records the drama that unfolds as moray eels stalk unsuspecting prey, giant squid rise from the depths, and legions of hammerhead sharks pass overhead, casting their formidable shadows.
