Description

Beverly está en Hawái ayudando a su tío en su tienda de buceo, aprendiendo a bucear y tratando de perder peso y conseguir un novio. Cuando Garth, un buceador experimentado, muestra interés en ella, Beverly está feliz, hasta que resulta que a Garth solo le interesa una cosa. Cada vez más débil por la drástica dieta que se impuso ella misma, Beverly se encuentra en graves problemas cuando tiene que defenderse de Garth bajo el agua.

Disponible en inglés: Breathless.
