Katie, George, and Willie Alister (aged 9, 7, and 5, respectively) go into the bush to collect kindling. Their task completed, they suddenly find that they've lost their way and must spend a night in the bush. Their parents enlist the help of the locals, including Aboriginal tracker Tommy Sundown, but one night stretches to two and then three. Will the children ever make it home safely?
