The Undersea World of Jacques Cousteau (1966-1976): Coral Divers of Corsica
(1975)
The famous underwater explorer Jacques Cousteau takes his research vessel calypso on a voyage of adventure and scientific discovery. Toussaint Recco, a dare-devil Corsican diver, raids the sea for precious red coral. This red coral is the core of a multi-million-dollar trade in jewellery, expensive artefacts and legendary talismans. Captain Cousteau and his divers, concerned about the unremitting rape of this irreplaceable beauty of the sea, investigate the marvels of coral, and probe this world of coveted treasure, temptation and reckless risk.
