After a terrifying mid-flight lightning strike, Juliane finds herself plummeting 10,000 feet from a small plane into the dense, unforgiving Peruvian jungle. With no survival gear and no way to contact help, she relies on her vast knowledge of the wild to stay alive. Battling hunger, treacherous terrain, venomous wildlife, and unpredictable weather, Juliane embarks on a grueling journey to escape the jungle's grasp. Her survival becomes a test of willpower, resilience, and the sheer desire to live.
