The film is a survey of the "world's oceans," emphasizing that it is a single interconnected ocean. And the dependence of all life on the planet. The film shows researchers tracking whales, a Coast Guard rough-weather rescue squad, "a deep-ocean research team," and the Palau Islands, which contain an unusual jellyfish habitat.
