Fans of the survival movie genre have been hailing one particular film on Netflix as the “best one” they’ve ever seen.

The synopsis on Rotten Tomatoes, where the film is scored at 69%, reads: “Pregnant, alone and drifting in the sea, a woman trapped in a shipping container tries to survive after fleeing a devastated totalitarian country.”
The film also stars Tamar Novas as Nico and is based on a story by Indiana Lista, with a screenplay written by Ernest Riera, Miguel Ruz, Indiana Lista, Seanne Winslow, and Teresa Rosendoy.
