In this science fiction reinterpretation of Herman Melville’s timeless story, the notorious whale is portrayed as larger, more formidable, and significantly more powerful. The narrative, featuring “Xena” alum Rene O’Connor in the traditionally male role of the storyteller, explores the epic struggle between humanity, the ocean, and its colossal inhabitant. The vessel, now transformed into an advanced submarine, matches the whale in scale, while Captain Ahab remains resolute in his quest for vengeance against the formidable sea creature that left him scarred.
