A story about seven flustered bushwalkers, trekking overland from Katoomba to Canberra, leaderless and lost, seven very different people united by the wish to just make it back home...alive. It could also be read as a handbook on the distinctly Australian art of how we do politics, how we lead and manage as members of a group with a common goal. In fact, if this story became a movie, it could very easily become that movie which screens on the eve of every national election, just to give us some insight into how our leaders behave. And how they shouldn't behave!
It's Don's Party meets Deliverance meets All New Ausssie Outback Adventures!
