SHADOW WAR
Logline: When a battle-weary, suspended Navy SEAL revives his family fishing business, he spots Russian Spetsnaz troops disguised as fishermen blowing up an oil rig, and fights to prevent a hit on their next target--the Trans-Alaskan pipeline. ______________________________________ Synopsis: On the verge of losing his family because of prolonged overseas duty, a Navy SEAL about to make captain is suspended for disobeying orders to kill terrorists disguised as fishermen caught sabotaging a UAE gas pipeline in the Persian Gulf. When the disgraced SEAL returns home to Alaska to resume the family fishing business during his suspension, he again encounters terrorists posing as fishermen, but discovers they are Russian spetsnaz forces on a covert mission to destroy the Alaskan transcontinental pipeline. After he warns his family and government officials, they accuse him of having PTSD, and the suspended SEAL learns that to win back his family, save innocent lives and prevent an economic death sentence to the U.S., he must sacrifice his Navy career and disobey orders again by engaging the enemy in a tactical fight to the death on Alaska’s frigid waters.
