After losing his crew in a fatal crash, legendary Rescue Swimmer,
Ben Randall (KEVIN COSTNER), is sent to teach at "A" School, an
elite training program for Coast Guard Rescue Swimmers. Wrestling
with the loss of his crew members, he throws himself into teaching,
turning the program upside down with his unorthodox training
methods.
While there, he encounters a young, cocky swim champ, Jake Fischer
(ASHTON KUTCHER), who is driven to be the best. During training,
Randall helps mold Jakes character, combining his raw talent with
the heart and dedication required of a Rescue Swimmer. Upon
graduation, Jake follows Randall to Kodiak, Alaska, where they face
the inherent dangers of the Bering Sea.
In his initial solo rescue, Jake learns firsthand from Randall, the
true meaning of heroism and sacrifice, echoing the Swimmers
motto..."So Others May Live!"
