Description

Four backpackers meet in Bolivia and set off into the rain forest on a dream expedition. But what begins as the adventure of a lifetime quickly becomes a struggle for survival when they get lost in the wilds of the Amazonian jungle. The group splits up after disagreements, and Yossi and Kevin try to find their own way without a guide. When a rafting accident separates the two men, Yossi is forced to survive for weeks alone in one of the most unpredictable environments on Earth. Stranded without a knife, map or survival training, he must improvise shelter and forage for wild fruit to survive. As his skin begins to rot from his feet during raging storms, he wonders if any of them will make it back alive...
