- Synopsis
- Desde que lo dejó su novia, Jayden ha estado evitando la escuela...y la vida en general. Cuando su excéntrico tío Mel lo invita a Australia porque necesita ayuda en su investigación de biología, Jayden piensa que no tiene nada que perder. Lo malo es que eso implica viajar al abrasador desierto en el interior despoblado de Australia con el cada vez más paranoico Mel y una hostil estudiante de biología llamada Natalie. Entonces los golpea el desastre y, a muchas millas de la civilización, Jayden y Nat tienen que luchar por sus vidas. Since his girlfriend dumped him, Jayden has been avoiding school—and life in general. When his eccentric uncle Mel invites him to help with his biology research at an Australian university, he figures he has nothing to lose. Once he arrives, he discovers Mel is obsessed with finding a new species of lizard and is determined to be the first to discover it. Unfortunately, this means an expedition into the scorching desert heat of the Australian outback...with the increasingly paranoid Mel and an unfriendly biology student named Natalie. Then disaster strikes, and Jayden and Nat find themselves many miles from civilization fighting for their survival.
