Real Survival Stories

A tranquil boat trip around Indonesia becomes a terrifying test of will and endurance. Els Visser is a trainee doctor enjoying some well deserved downtime. But when her tourist vessel starts sinking in the middle of the ocean, she embarks on a life-or-death slog through the treacherous waters. A live volcanic island offers her best hope of survival. And not everyone will make it through the ordeal alive… A Noiser production, written by Martin McNamara.
