A crew of fishermen head out to sea to catch some fish. On the way back they discover that a huge storm is brewing up. It turns out there are three different storms that are about to clash. They then head to the middle of the storm and hope for the best.

This movie was about a captain and crew trying to bring alot of fish back to make up for the dry spell that happened the first time around. A storm came about and the Andrea Gail was sent to the bottom of the sea with it's crew and captain.

A true story of a courage as a small fishing village comes to terms with the fact that loved ones will not be returning. A tremendous battle against the elements; a battle with only one victor, which ultimately results in the lives lost of a group of fishermen, who dared ride 'the eye of the storm'.
--Steven J Noble, Resident Scholar
