Synopsis by Ed Atkinson
This 57-minute documentary examines the ten day excursion of nine youngsters. The youths are dropped into the Inyo Mountains in eastern California with the intent to survive in the wilderness and to become closer to themselves and each other. Thanks to a tag along camera, you are able to witness the entire journey, which includes three days of fasting.
