The story of Oceans 7 is structured along two parallel strands of a) the race and b) Beth’s struggle with ME – both past and present. They continuously intertwine and create contrasting stylistic sequences.
Set in some of the world’s most exciting locations, the crossings are filmed with a variety of different formats – using drones, steady-cams and underwater cameras – to capture the drama and physical demands of each of the swims: the sharks, the poisonous jelly-fish, the waves, the cold, the exhaustion and physical effects of swimming in salt water for hours at a time.
