The "Daedalus" sets out to find the "Icarus", a submarine lost in an unexplored cave system under Greenland. But wait, why is it Icarus and Daedalus? Icarus and Daedalus are inspired by the greek myth in with Daedalus creates wings for himself and his son to soar through the air, but Icarus gets too cocky, flies to close to the sun, falls down into the ocean and drowns.

In "The Icarus" it is just the other way around and the submarine "Icarus" dives too deep, instead of flying too high. And instead of drowning, it is destroyed by getting too much air? Well, the comparison might just go so far. And now the Father embarks into the icey depths to find his son, * with its submarines vision restricted to only what the sonar can make out. *
