Diving (Season 1)

Diving (Погружение, 2013) is a Russian sci-fi series you can watch online on iFILM. Igor lives for adventure: illegal digs, scuba diving, any lead on buried treasure. He and his brother head for an abandoned quarry rumoured to hide the remains of an ancient settlement under the water. The site is classified. They find out why.

The quarry was the location of a decades-long secret experiment. The people who took part never left — they are still inside, in an anomalous zone that runs on its own rules, cut off from the outside world. Getting in is easy. Getting out is the problem. Director Alexander Boguslavsky skips flashy effects and lets the premise carry the weight; the dread comes from a simple idea — a place you can enter and never leave. Pavel Mamonov, Nikita Kukushkin, and Yura Borisov co-star. Watch Diving online on iFILM.
